(Sampled 7-4-08 at cousin’s party from 12 oz. bottle poured into clear plastic glass)- poured transparent dull red-brown, quarter finger off white head that actually stayed for a few minutes. Very weak aroma of sugar and malt. Hits the mouth with a high-thin body, malt is detectable and somewhat pleasant, some odd twang of sweetness and hops on the finish. Better than what I was drinking before hand, but the homemade rocket fuel later in the evening blew everything away that night.

Not much really here. No smell, very little taste. I’m not sure exactly what I’m supposed to be tasting. It’s completely drinkable, but not great. I suppose its good, but its not great. just....blah.

Light amber with a thin white head. Low malt and caramel in the aroma. A slight hop bitterness at the end. Very subdued but not bad.

On draft in Milwaukee. Appearance is a clear amber hue, minimal head and lacing. Smell is very subdued, some clean bread malts w/hints of caramel and grassy hops. Taste is bread and caramel malts, lager yeast, light grassy hops, finishes with light bitterness. Light-bodied, watery texture, high carbonation. Substandard lager with too much carbonation, easy-to-drink but lacking in any creative or bold flavors.

Nice copper color with a thin white head. Nice malty sweet flavor. I think I could drink this all day.
