On-Tap at the Brewery (There for the 04’ Reno Air Races)
Brown copper color, a balanced head. Nose of light summer fruity floral hops & watery grain. The flavor is a touch musky & dry but with a light sweetness of raspberries. Finishes balanced, boring, predictable.

Draft. At Reno Airport pub. Much better than expected but still nothing special. Pours a light amber with a medium head. Worked well to wash down the crappy fried airport food though I do not remember the specifics on this one.

0.8 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 2/20
Inside the Eldorado Hotel, Reno NV. I believe the taps were infected with mold. The Bar tender said he had had no complaints but holy cow was this stuff bad. Burger beer on steriods. A direct strain of foot mold from the shower floor of the YMCA in Afganistan was used in producing this beer. This stuff was so far off and nobody noticed? Voted #1? You should get a handfull of grimy quarters from the slot machine and put them in your mouth for a half hour the aftertaste would be the same. The only thing worse was the Big Dog ale wich had a higher concentration of mold. I feel so lucky I wasn’t poisoned!
