(Can) THIS BREWERY ROCKS - I cannot get enough of it! Wait, nope... that is my next review for Southampton. This beer was poured down a black Canadian Tire funnel into a waiting New Englanders stomach and, supposedly, making some counter-remark towards the beering society - I honour his fearlessness but question his wisdom? This beer poured a thin, white, quick dissipating head and a golden body. No carbonation. Nose of club soda. No flavour. No satisfaction...

RBSG DC 2006: Pours to a clear pale yellow body with a small white head. The aroma is clearly skunked and highly oxidized, showing sweaty feet and stale corn syrup. The taste is overly sweet corn syrup, sweet celery (really gross), and artificial sweetener. Light bodied, medium-lively carbonated.

No aroma. Clear gold with thin white head that recedes to ring. Mildly sweet flavour. Some mild sweetness in the flavour. Decent carbonation and mouthfeel. While this is by no means a good substitute for beer, it is inoffensive and, against expectations, was not the worst of the tasting session and actually was well worth it to see Barry pound it back through a funnel for number 2000. Way to go Barry! Can enjoyed with beerhugger, CapFlu, DumDum, muzzlehatch, radiomgb and Rastacouere.

Sweet review Barry - I’m proud to be one of the damn Canucks you came to steal Bucks from. Watching you funnel that splendid American brew was a highlight for us all. If only I had the sense to add the Jim Beam to mine....as it was however I enjoyed a totally see-through, pretty much odourless, pretty much flavourless "beer" that somehow was drinkable - and in fact was almost preferable to one of the beers with alcohol we tried. I’m never going to have it again mind you, but the funnel for #2000 was perfect.

Can -- courtesy of biegaman. Fourth beer of the "Not-Very-Good-Beers-Tasting" - Day 1. Pours a clear gold with an average size crazy-bright white head -- looks a little unnatural. Aroma: Oh god, how does one describe this? Garbage for sure, some sewage, lots of vegetal notes, grain and burnt stuff -- best I can do really. Flavour’s a little better, thank goodness: Watery, grainy and vegetal. Light bitter-like finish that is awful and quite unpleasant. Light bodied. The aroma is downright offensive and the flavour is bad -- why would someone drink this regularly? It boggles the mind.

Clear carbonated yellow with a darker tinge than I expected. White head. Skunky aroma with, yes, some dough. Extremely watery palate. Half doughy nothing/half vile taste. I found myself not wanting to swallow. Who drinks this?

Sampled at Bockyhorsey’s Bocky Bash on 7-5-08. Number 600! Thanks Bill, though I’m a little curious why you had this in the house... As for the rating: Anheuser Busch, using detailed and proven scientific methods, discovered everything good and desirable about beer. Then they invented a way to remove all of it. This is the result. Cheers!
