Draft/Ameristar Casino Oyster Bar, St. Charles, MO-Bitter and very malty. I prefer my food spicy, not my beer, so this isn’t exactly my cup of tea (or glass of beer), but judging it by its class, not a bad lager. Kudos to anyone that can down a 6 of these (or 2, even) in one evening. One the whole, though, if you’re having just one, very full bodied, nice finish.

Pours a copper-brown color with a tan head and lots of carbination. Taste is malty with caramel and nuts. Finish is slightly dry, bitter. A good one.

Color is a nice clear coppery amber with a decent head. Aroma is fairly strong, malty with a firm undertone of spice and a hint of caramel. Flavor matches the aroma, malty and spicy with caramel and nutty hints. Texture is lively and jazzy, leaving a pleasing finish.

Pours an amber color with a white forming head. Good smell but I didn’t enjoy the flavor. Lager feel and taste behind this one and I’m just not a lager guy.

Thx for a great tasting, Kim Johansen... it will never be the same again :-) Dark amber w tiny head. Malty aroma of sweet ripe fruit and caramel. Flavour is sweet w a supprysingly dry bitter finish.

This poured a dark brown with a small off white head. I had this on tap at the local bar. It only had subtle winter beer flavors or cinnamon, caramel, slight hops, some spice, nothing over done which makes it a good drinking beer... not a favorite but the best choice at a lot of bars.

Bottle- Dark copper pour with an off-white head. Some spice and hops on the nose. The wheat body and rather weak constitution of this dose not appeal to me. Middle of the road seasonal.
