3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20 stephenj007 (77) - Houston, Texas, USA - DEC 26, 2009
Bottle pour, thin off-white head, minimal carbonation. Nice, red-brown clear appearance. Mild aromas of spice, bread and lightly roasted malts. Not much in the taste, a little hops bite,, mostly malt tastes, with a bit of mild caramel at the finish. Very thin body, goes down quickly. Nothing impressive here. I guess if you like this style, you might be more impressed.

A clear red color with a big white head. The aroma is mostly of bread with some faint hops. The relatively light body is highly carbonated and the taste is lightly sweet. Most of the flavor comes from the malt. A decent lager, but I’m not sure I would classify it as a dark lager.
