The aromas were more pleasant than the taste of this densely murky-orange beer. Scents were sweetly malted with a hint of raisin. The flavor, on the other hand, was sour and slightly soapy with tastes of vinegared wine and unsweetened instant tea. A watery palate finished chalky. There was a crust of sediment on the bottom of the bottle, so I don’t know how long this was sitting. For 89 cents, it didn’t repulse me as it just kinda made me sad.

My review for the Quake Honey Cream Ale read as follows:

"Ach, mein gott! Are these people in jail, yet? This thing pours out a murky, light brown color with a slim, off-white head. It smells like stale caramel corn and old candy wrappers. It tastes like old caramel and rancid honey and leaves a bitter, bad Halloween flavor in the mouth."

Except for the color being amber rather than brown, I’ll stick by my guns.

Sweet and tart aroma, cranberry and caramel. Sweet on the palate, faint citric hoppiness in the finish.

Light red color, small head. Fruity aroma. What the bleep is this stuff? Gads. The aroma is indescribably awful, and then you taste the stuff. Sweet, possibility something is still fermenting/mutating. Glad I only paid 87 cent for a bottle of this swill. On the positive side, it’s really sweet and over carbonated and there is really something awful in the aftertaste. Hope it doesn’t rot the pipes when I pour it down the drain. Needed to brush my teeth after tasting this stuff. A 0.5 is way to high a rating for this stuff

A big kick in the nuts. It’s allegedly a "red cream ale" and pours a deep copper??? First impression was : this is a fruit laced mix between Arrogant Bastard and St. Ides. It quickly turned a corner and howled like "Tell Em Large Marge Sent You!!!!" in peewee herman’s big aventure. Farkin hideous. Oh man. Dude -- even my dog won’t drink this stuff.
