Tmoney99 (4652), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA May 4, 2005 Bottle. Poured a dark amber with an average rocky white head that lasted the majority of the brew. Average hoppy aroma. Medium body and average flavor with a medium bitter at finish. Good ale. green (187), Boston, Massachusetts, USA Mar 10, 2005 Very, very cold from store cooler. Amber with very little head retention. Aroma smells a bit like iron. Only the slightest malt flavor balanced with a slight hops flavor. Finishes a little macro swill like. It is slightly better that most macro swill, likely by intention. Nothing offensive, nothing exciting; a near perfect 2.5. Braudog (3733), Dayton, Ohio, USA Jan 29, 2005 Reddish amber with a standard slippery head. The aroma is vaguely malt or caramel. The flavor started with an unexpected tartness, followed with a sweet tangy finish. jimhilt (1663), Bow, New Hampshire, USA Dec 30, 2004 Pours a white, one-fingered head, fades quickly and leaves some lace. Medium carbonation and light-medium bodied. Clear amber color. Light malt nose. Starts with a mix of hops and sweetness and finishes smooth like the brewer says - no bitter aftertaste. $1.25 for a 12oz bottle from Liquor Barn Lexington, KY. mdi (573), Nebraska, USA Dec 24, 2004 12oz bottle. Copper color, negligable head. Light malty nose...some toasty and bread. Mellow malty flavor. Light/thin body. Sligh suggestion of hops in the finish and a slight touch of fruitiness. Not half good. Certainly doesn’t fulfill my taste for robust ales. Not one I’ll need to revisit. shrubber85 (2832), Wallhalben, Germany Dec 19, 2004 Bottle. Light fruity malt aroma - subtle. Coppery red color - little head. Cherry malt flavor - slightly sweet and slightly tart - quite enjoyable. SpringsLicker (2041), Tennessee, USA Dec 10, 2004 Clear light amber color and a quickly falling off white head start out when this one is poured.
Musty malt aroma reminds me of a damp basement.
Not really much flavor going on either good or bad, melded with a watery palate make this a forgettable brew. Hoss (602), Florida, USA Nov 20, 2004 Discovered on a recent hunting trip to Kentucky. A ratehr ordinary brew for someone who wants to say they like micros’s but want it to taste very mainstream. I found it musty and sweet
