12 oz bottle: Three words to describe Great Lakes Brewing "Consistently good beers" not all of them knock it out of the park, but a lot of them are damn good. Pours a clear amber color with a small sized carbonated tan head that lingers. Aroma is caramel, roasty notes, almost a grainy fresh sweet corn note (not the corn note for Bud and other) candy, and sweet. Taste is really nice rich caramel notes, nice lightly burnt notes, malt characteristic is very present. Palate is nicely carbonated, somewhat sweet on the lips, and tongue coating. Overall, This is darn good Vienna, Nice stuff.

Oct 15, 2008 Amber pour with gooey head and lace. Aroma of roasted malt. A maltiness balanced by a decent medium bitter. Medum bodied with good carbonation. A pretty special beer overall.

Oct 13, 2008 Pours a beautiful ruby/amber with a thin white head. Aroma is dominated by malt, with some notes of caramel and some roast. Like the aroma, flavor is dominated by malt balanced by a good hop finish. Another enjoyable offereing from GLBC.

Oct 5, 2008 12 oz bottle, about 1.5 weeks past its best by date. Pours clear amber with a small white head. Malty biscuit aroma, slightly sweet honey. Sweet honey biscuit flavor with a touch of hops. Honey mostly gives way to more biscuit after a few sips. This is a good, flavorful lager.
