This is a very solid dark beer. Not too thick and not too watered down. Straub puts out a good product.

Pours a nice copper color, tons of carbonation, very little head retention. Really smells of corn. Sweet, not unpleasent taste and zero hop bitterness/aroma. An alright beer for the price, more flavorful then the regular straub.
