DasBierChef (944) - Lucan, Minnesota, USA - FEB 15, 2012

Pours a clear dark amber. Nearly nonexistant head. Aroma is pretty malty but bland. Flavor is not too pleasant at all. A bit astringent, but not from the hops (which are nearly impossible to detect.)

Trev (1487) - Lakeville, Minnesota, USA - DEC 30, 2010

picked it up very cheap. *gulp* worth trying at least once? pours brownish with a small but tight off white head. aroma is nutty, light toffee/caramel, some grainy ’generic beer’ aroma as well. Thin bodied. Slightly astringent soapy taste. light roasted malt. some nuttiness again.

HonkeyBra (2281) - Lemont, Illinois, USA - NOV 23, 2010

Dark reddish pour with an off white head. Aroma is husky, light toffee, some chemicals. Flavor is husky malt, peanut shells, odd chemical bitterness. Not sure what happened here. Pretty horrible.
