Ok. This rating is for the old Miller Lowerbrau dark. I really miss that beer. It was one of my favorite beers from my school days. I know some people didn’t like it because it had corn in it, but it actually was a great tasting beer. What I remember about it was it had the best aftertaste of any beer of the day and it actually got better the more one would drink. I know it will never happen but I wish there was some way of trying it one more time.

Thin body and modest head. Very light carmel taste with little hop bitterness. Was much better years ago.

Beardface (1509) - Eugene, Oregon, USA - JUL 5, 2009
12 oz bottle. Pours out brown with a frothy tan head. Aroma is sweet caramel malt, light biscuit and some grain. Flavor is caramel and some light roasted malt. Mouth a little thin. Not too shabby for the style.

scooterbub (661) - Lander, Wyoming, USA - MAR 31, 2009
355 ml bottle. Pours a dark black-amber with a large foamy, clingy, pillowy, clingy tan head that slowly fades. Taste is of caramel, roasted malt, chocolate and some smoke. Similar aroma. Has good mouthfeel, but the body is a little thin. Easy to drink and rather tasty.

esta cerveza me gusta, una de las mejoras oscuras alemanas. No queda de otra mas que empezar a hacer los ratings en bulk. Algunas cervezas no van a tener su puntaje correcto, pero no se trata de eso. Todo tiene que ver con tener la lista completa. Lo siento, no se apoyen en mis comentarios, pero vamos hacer lo posible.

RSRIZZO (1810) - Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA - OCT 10, 2007
Had this beer on 2/1/2000. Aroma is a light crisp malt scent. Carbonation is very good with a thick head. Taste is light crisp and clean. Starting with a light body it goes down crisp. The finish a light malt flavor with only the faintest hint of a roasted taste. It doesn’t seem to be much more than a dark colored Pilsner.

FLAVOR IS ROBUST. AFTERTASTE IS STRONG AND TART. APPEARANCE OUT OF BOTTLE IS CRISP AND CLEAR, BUT BELIES THE FLAVOR.

cking (1175) - North Canton, Ohio, USA - JUN 1, 2007
Rated 12/4/06: Pretty standard fare here, used to be a dirt cheap sixer back in the day. Seems harder to come across now. Weak aroma very grainy, nice dark pour moderate head. Very quenching and drinkable. Flavor has some bite to it, good maltiness and very little hop presence. Average dunkel but decent for the buck.
