Despite the brewer this is actually a pretty decent beer. I probably would have been too biased to give it a shot if I hadn’t got this beer in a trade. What a nice surprise. Way to go Coors. This is how you should do the rest of your beers :)
Appearance: Pours a noble amber color with golden highlights. It had a thick 2 finger off white head.
Smell: Very little aroma to this beer. there is a bit of mustiness in the nose but as far as scent you really need to stretch to find a bit of hop and spice.
Taste: Buttery sweet. Very nice. A bit of sweet malt and candied caramel. Sweet aftertaste that seems to keep coming back.
Mouthfeel: Light, but pleasantly smooth and buttery.
Drinkability: I was very surprised at how palatable this beer was. It not extremely special but for Coors it is more than I expected and it is certainly a very drinkable suitable selection.
Hope this is helpful.
Cheers!
THANKS:

Aug 6, 2008 Found this sucker at a small deli in the upper west. Prior to that, I’ve never seen or even heard of it before. Pour is impressive, dark brown with a tint of ruby.. generous amounts of sediment which i would have never expected from Coors. Its actually the first macro ive seen with this. Aroma is malty, maple, and a bit of vanilla. Taste is bitter, malty, some nutmeg, sweet caramel, and a bit of burnt. Holds a bitter linger. So underrated, if this didn’t read Coors it would be 60/100 minimum. 3.65

Jun 16, 2008 Bottle. Pours a dark amber body with an off white head. Aroma is sweet and malty, a few of the spices that would show up in a winter warmer but the lack of etoh is hurting this. If only they buffed it up a bit. Oh well.

Mar 16, 2008 Had this with my neighbor. Thought the rating was low because its a big 3 beer. Very tasty and wish it would be a regular in the Coor’s lineup. Smooth, drinkable and perhaps the best beer in the Line.

Feb 16, 2008 Amber coloured body with strong ruby highlights and a decent looking tan head that tops the beer. Aroma of strong malt, a light spiceyness that stays in the nose for a second and a very light hoppiness. Light to Medium-bodied; Faint hoppiness that starts the taste fading to a bit of a maltiness with a subtle spice character all ending with a bit of a bittering tone. Aftertaste shows the bitterness and nothing else really. Overall, one-dimensional and not good at all in the taste. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Norm’s in Vienna, Virginia way out in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma on 13-December-2005.

Dec 30, 2007 12-oz bottle from Woodstock Wine & Deli--Poured a clear amber witha small and quickly dissipating to nothing head. Sweet and fruity. Artificial flavoring. Pretty weak, though it started off ok. Of course, Coors sucks.
