This poured a clear golden color with a big white head. Aroma was mainly sweet with lots of grassy notes. Flavor was dusty and grassy with hints of skunk as well. Classic to german style, but not good.

Crisp, sharp lager enjoyed during my first visit to The Beer Engine. Went great with the Tuscan Burger. Bright, dark gold in color with a thin fizzy head and decent spots of lacing. Pepper and spicy hop aroma that leads to a light doughy scent. Sweet with a biting aftertaste, light bodied lager that refreshed my palate. Mild malt flavors backed by an aggressive noble hop content. Good to see another well made Dortmunder from the Cleveland area, but I still tip my hat to the guys down the street.

UPDATED: MAR 27, 2009 on tap, nice crystal clear golden color. malty aroma and taste with a nice dose of noble hop bitterness. clean finish. a delicious lager, dare I say better than GL???? P.S. Don’t listen to miketd, he’s a douche.

UPDATED: MAY 18, 2009 Biscuit and cookie malts, thin head, moderate lacing. Finish is clear, crisp and bright. Not one of Buckeyes’ most impressive.
