Bottle. For an InBev product this isn’t bad at all. The aroma wasn’t much to describe however it had an all around drinkable decent taste. It wasn’t anything to remember, but it was good enough to drink a ton of it without being offended or bored. Is it right in front of you? Go for it? Go out of your way to get your hands on it, definitely not!

6 pack on sale.. I usually ALWAYS steer clear of macro brews but I figured what the hell... Pours a beautiful dark amber with a decent head.. Not much there in terms of smell.. a slight hoppiness to the nose but nothing to prevelant... the initial hit to the palate is very carbonated with a fizzy, lively, flavor that is somewhat abrupt.. Hints of oak and a slight bitterness but not much else.. The finish isnt bad but it did leave a bit of a bitter aftertaste.. Not an awful beer but definitely not as smooth as Id like to see from a beer...

On tap. Pours a dark brown with amber highlights. The taste is dark toasty bready malt, a light nutty flavor with a crisp hops aftertaste.

Better than some, but just ho, hum. 12 oz. bottle to pint glass. Amber with off-white, very short lived head, minimal lacing. Nice, but a little weak, malt, bread and caramel. Sweet, corns and sugary, just okay in the finish. Too thin, like most macro bocks.

12 oz bottle pours a deep hazel with minimal off white head into a lager glass. Grainy aroma, bit nutty, bready. Tastes starchy with some faint nuts, bready, nondescript sweetness. Light bodied with high carbonation and a fizzy mouthfeel.

poisoneddwarf (882) - Rathdrum, Idaho, USA - JAN 7, 2010
12 oz bottle. Faint aroma of caramel malt. Looks terrible--no head or lacing (I like how the label boasts about its "tall head"). Dark brown hue. Tastes of toasted almonds, caramel. Starts slightly sweet and finishes just a little bitter. Highly carbonated, light bodied. Not a drain pour, but oh so uncreative.

Skyview (4739) - Papoose Jct, Minnesota, USA - JAN 7, 2010
Picked up a single 12-oz bottle at Cellars Wine & Spirits. Pours a clear dark amber colored brew with a thin off-white head that slowly dissipates to a thin ring. Aroma of roasted dark malt, corn, a hint of brown sugar, and floral hops. Taste is medium bodied, a touch malty with flavors of corn, roasted caramel malt and some toffee. Finish is a touch watery with some mild bitterness and roasted dark malt aftertaste.
