| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Dec 28, 2007 Aroma is a metallic hop scent. Color is a clear amber with good carbonation and a some what loose head that stays low. Taste is light and crisp. Starting with a light body it goes down crisp with a mild malt flavor that has just a faint sweet caramel taste to it. Finish rolls in with a nice bitterness and a very faint hop flavor, then leaves you with a slight metallic aftertaste. Overall it very drinkable but not very hoppy. kidmartinek (975), austin, Texas, USA
