Aubrey (2614), Denver, Colorado, USA Jan 28, 2005 Pale yellow. Yeasty, bread-dough malts were fairly light. Stark flavors from start to finish: weedy spices, cooked vegetables, curious chemicals, and musty earth. Must’ve been a bad batch. Infection? Ernest (4254), Boulder, Colorado, USA Jan 25, 2005 Draught. Body is light yellow. Aroma is lightly malty (grain), lightly hoppy (flowers), with a strong note of insecticide, hint of coriander. Flavor is lightly sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly acidic, moderately bitter, very unclean. Light to medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation. Yiiiiiikes. This was scary bad. I know cream ales aren’t all that, but that’s not at issue here. This literally smelled and tasted like a gallon of Raid had accidentally fallen in the tank. Undrinkable, and extremely repulsive. acrdz (4406), Boulder, Colorado, USA Jan 9, 2005 Murky light yellow color. Some corn and fuesal aromas, light body, just a little creamy... but really overpowered by some bad fuel flavors, along with some equally bad metal and soap notes. Leafy at times as well, like lawn clippings. Weird.
