Pours a clear amber body with a smallish white head. Aroma is medium sweet caramel and somewhat earthy. Flavor is caramel, earthy, light spice and some bread. Somewhat short sweet finish. Light body, thin texture.

Las Vegas, Nevada - Golden Nugget on Draft. This was a good change from all the bottle beer on the casino floor. Other then the the better blend, nothing really special about this beer.

Sample at the brewpub. Pours a clear amber color with a thin and foamy off-white head that dissipates quickly. Spotty lacing on the glass. Mild malt aroma with a touch of hops. Medium, smooth body with a weak malt and hops flavor along with a hint of fruit. The finish is sweet with a short-lived malt aftertaste. Overall there is nothing noteworthy about this beer.

Had on tap at the 4 Queens in Vegas. Poured to a light copper color with medium thick off-white head that hung around through mid-glass and left a little lacing. Aroma and taste were both muted, though they were no doubt affected by the numerous cigars I smoked up to that point. Although nothing great stood out with this beer, Iit was actually nice and smooth, with a decent finish, and one that I might enjoy much more under different circumstances.

(Sampler @ 4 Queens, Las Vegas, NV): Amber colored body, foamy white head. Nearly no aroma, some sweet malt. Bitter taste, sour. Some fruit. Very bitter, caustic.
