Pours red with a minor head. Malty flavor with a strong watery quality. Nothing very great.

Rusty amber colored pour with a short lived off-white head. Subtle caramel and toasted nut aroma with a hint of spicy European hops. Flavor is mostly nutty and toasty with a moderate amount of spicy hops, but still very vegetal, stale and adjuncty tasting. Medium-thin body with lots of carbonation. Not bad for a macro brew but you can still definitely tell that it is.

Attractive amber pour. Nose of caramel malt. Medium bodied, slightly creamy. Caramel dominated taste. Skunky aftertaste. Good looking and smelling but pretty unremarkable. I won’t go out of my way to drink it again, but it was free so I can’t complain.

On tap at The Boondocks, P.C. Beach, Fl. Dark, amber color with minimal head, yet very creamy to taste. I only tried this because the place didn’t have a whole lot to offer, but it wasn’t as bad as I expected.
