Jan 4, 2005 12 oz bottle. Deep solid gold, little head; grassy, herbal, very dry nose; body similarly dry, very herbal and woody, quite acerbic and a touch salty...finish thin, and again bone-dry. Interesting, like chewing on dry dry crusty bread; but not very drinkable.

Jul 2, 2005 Updated: Jul 4, 2005Hmmm... I wasn’t aware that Pilseners could be brewed using Ojibwe manoomin (wild rice). A decent enough drink, deep gold, slight head, musty earthy hop odor over sweet grasses. The flavor had a surprisingly fruity, apple & peach, kind of a twist. An earthy hop bitterness returns on the finish Sal’s Beverage World, Elmhurst, IL

Aug 26, 2005 Bottle, Cold Springs Brewery. Dark golden color with a smaller diminishing yellowish (similar to a ages piece of paper) colored head. Toasted white bread aromas along with some light caramel and a hint of light floral hops. Really has a wild rice quality. Lightly sweet wild rice flavors mix with mild rose and lavender. A sweeter lager. A mild bitter linger helps ensure that his does get to sweet. A novel brew. Let see if Point does anything with this one. Thanks CharlesDarwin.

Jan 18, 2004 Dark golden with a monster head. Cherry-vinegar aroma followed with a malt-alcohol flavor and a cheddar cheese bitterness. Didn't care for this one.

Sep 13, 2004 Autumn Brew Review 2004. Kind of a dark golden color with a medium head. I didn’t know ahead of time there was wild rice in it, but that might explain a few things... Kind of a weird hops taste, likely brought about by the wild rice. I’m not sure the flavors mesh well. Aroma was pretty weak. Watery.
