Not much flavor to speak of. Some roasty malt, but it thin and watery. Smooth drinking on a hot day though.

Dark brown, light, brownish head. Aroma is rich and malty, caramel, toffee toast, light hoppiness, some yeasty fruit(pear). Very light in body, burnt toast, raisin, wood and apple.

Pours dark with very little head that disappears right away. Little to no aromas but there is a hint of coffe and malt. When you take your first sip, don’t blink, you might miss the flavor. A quick hint of coffee hits the palate and then nothing. The thinness disapates quickly in your mouth with a dry finish and nothing. Almost like you didn’t drink anything. Definately not a fan.

I thought the bottle and label looked neat and thought this might be a decent import. I was horribly wrong. It had a peanut, yet tinny, aroma that was nearly nonexistent. Brown color, floating sediments, thin tan head. Weak charcoal taste. Finish is generically bitter, like some sort of resin. Not gross, but uninspired and poorly made/kept.

Very weak effort. What does this beer want to be? To much carbonation, and not ’nuff flavor!

Clear brown pour with a light head. Old fruit and some light molasses aroma. Flavor is rotten fruit and spent malt...just awful honestly. Coopers, Australian for piss.
