valpoaj (297), Valparaiso, Indiana, USA Apr 13, 2008 Bottle courtesy Suttree - Thanks (I think)! Pours a muted golden color with a good sized whitish head that dissipated quickly. Aroma is actually quite nice...lots of sweet malt, corn, some faint hops, and a splash of citrus and honey mixed in for good measure. Flavor is, well, kind of odd. Sweet with some dark fruit accents in at the beginning, but it takes a quick turn to a more metallic, soapy finish. Alcohol is VERY prevalent from start to finish...this almost has a burn to it, and definitely has a warming sensation on the after-palate. Too carbonated as well...very bubbly and hard to drink quickly. Finish is very tinny and somewhat unpleasant. Oh well, wasn’t expecting a miracle out of this one, so I’m not depressed. I can say I grabbed life by the claws tonight!
MakeItDrinkIt (66), Portland, Oregon, USA Jul 14, 2008 Shimmering deep golden hue with a medium white head. Aroma is lightly sweet, a touch nutty, lightly floral. Flavor is somewhat sweet, but a touch metallic, and alcoholic. Definitely leaves a light metallic finish after all else is gone. A bit like a cheaply made malt liquor, with a funky label that should probably be covered with a brown paper bag! tristan13 (7), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA does not count Jul 9, 2008 bad aroma. thin flavor with sweet finish. bad aftertaste. very tinny. would not try again. nick76 (2054), Tampa, Florida, USA Jul 2, 2008 The aroma is unpleasant malt and rather non descript. Maybe a hint of hops and metal. The appearance is pale gold with almost no head. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is thin. Overall it’s not worth having. I can’t figure out what is has to do with lobster. daddyslick (36), Arizona, USA Jul 2, 2008 yes, the name is funny, but seriously, it takes more than a name to keep me drinking a beer. This beer pours yellow with a white head which leaves quickly. It tastes much the way a pure extract beer might. Very sweet at first and then a very bitter taste fills the mouth just after swallowing, and then all trace of the beer is gone. leroyneiman (9), Nashville, Tennessee, USA does not count Jun 23, 2008 Pours a muted golden color with a good sized whitish head that dissipated quickly.
