Nice, semi-transparent brown body with sparse thin head tracing on glass...hints or green bottle metallics...the maltiness presents little uniqueness...tremendous carbonation! lively curving of the beer around the tongue...a bit of nut--and a lot of malt...a classic in brand name, smooth and aggressive...enjoyable and versatile, and mainstream enough to be served at barbecues and holiday parties...

Can’t believe I never rated this one before. Color: look at the bottle. It’s clear glass. :(
Slightly off diaper-and-skunk nose. Toasted malt and malt powder slightly sour, lots melon, very little hop profile. Watery, pretty close to boring but not outright objectionable.

Oct 12, 2008 (Draught at Bull & Bear, Stockholm, 8 Oct 2008) Dark reddish brown colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, slightly roasted nose with grain, fodder and hints of dark fruit. Malty taste with notes of dark fruit, prunes, caramel, syrup and toasted grain. Low bitterness, medium body, rather sweet. Simple and boring.
