2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Cool, another historical Wisconsin beer brand of the past revived. Pours a light golden pale blonde brew with a fast dissolving white head that leaves behind a ring and film top. Aroma of slight corn grits, some biscuit dough and a touch of citrus hops. Taste is light bodied, slightly gritty and well carbonated. Flavors include corn grits, some green vegetable with a very faint hop bitterness. Finish is a little gritty and then a light citrus aftertaste. The last time this beer was available was in 1950 when the former Reedsburg Brewing Company closed operations.

Light Gold with Small White Head. Skunky Grains Aroma. Some Candy Sugar Noticeable...Bad Lager...
2.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Gold color with no head. Caramel aroma. Very corny taste. The "old" in the name is probably spot on: it’s probably been aged in the keg for months since no one drinks it.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Clear transparent yellow with lively fizz rising to a foamy white head. Aroma of starch, sourdough, paling malts, lemons and bland biscotti. Clean and crisp flavor at first, then rapidly receding and thinning. Biscuity yeast characteristics and modest pils hopping for balance. Weak, but not astringent or acidic like many similar renditions.
