Clear copper with a beige fading bubbly topper. Aroma of sweet malt, caramel, and brown sugar. Body is a little cloying and syrupy and over carbonated with a cola like finish with a not so pleasant aftertaste. There’s some sweet malt in there but mostly just another crummy Michelob.

Reviewed 11/14/2008 (Tap @ AB Brewery, St. Louis, MO): Pours a clear dark brown color body, with a creamy whitish cream-colored head, that is big and lasting. Lots of fizziness. A malty aroma, but hard to smell much. Clean tasting, a watery palate. Some maltiness, a little dusty, and some light fruitiness like white grape or pear. Not a fan I used to like this in college, but now my palate has evolved, and I have better choices.

I give begruding respect to macros who at least try their hand at craft beer. As it stands, this isn’t bad. The appearance is the nicest part, a nice chestnut brown with an amber hue. Thin white head, doesn’t stick around. The aroma is grainy malts. The flavor is caramel malts, with a slight fruitiness, more so when it warms up. Medium mouthfeel. The finish has a nice hop presence. This is not a bad beer at all. Not remarkable, but I might serve it without much embarassment at a bbq with a lot of guests.

On tap. Absolutely terrible. Sweet, maybe with some caramel malt in there. Otherwise, nothing nice to say about this one.

Pours a reddish brown color with a medium white head. The aroma is malty and fairly sweet. The taste is mostly some caramel malts, light toasted flavors, smooth and easy going. A clean flavor that suits drinking more than a couple. Not a bad beer in any way. Inoffensive.

Really not half bad for a cheap ass beer. Goes down extremely smoothly and even has a little bit of flavor to it. I have been known to drink this at bowling alleys where there are no better options.

Total drain pour. Smells like burnt wood, ashes, and funky stale malt. Horrid, horrible stuff. No redeeming qualities whatsoever.
