2.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle courtesy of dpjuart. Light caramel aroma, decent malty profile with light fruity hoppiness. Mild diacetyl. Dark maple syrup amber clear, with thin foamy off-white lacing head. Medium watery body with medium carbonation. Starts a bit sweet, with light grainy malty character and some diacetyl. Light acidity, with carbonic tang and light nutty bitterness in the finish. Light bitter chalky after, very weak though. Not a bad beer, but just a bit too sweet in character.

Pours thin caramel/amber with large bubbles and a small sudsy head. Decent malt and little bit spicy aroma. Sugary toasty malt and a little bit of hoppy bitter in the finish. The alcohol shows through a lot more than it ever should in a 5.1%. Sticky thin body.

UPDATED: JAN 19, 2009 12oz bottle from a sampler pack. Has a copper color with a thin off-white head. Taste is of roasted caramel and malt. Is a little thin. Slightly sweet with some bitterness. Has a nice caramel and malt aroma. A good beer, as it is smooth, easy to drink and pretty enjoyable.

Courtesy of dpjuart. Deep amber color with a small white head. Kind of an artificial banana nose. A lot of sweetness, some brown sugar and a little bit of spice. A sweet caramel malty flavor. A hint of pears too. Decent body. Drinkable, but not a great beer.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle, came in s sampler pack. Pleasant aroma, nice ruddy body with a orangish foam - insulation-like head. Flavor is very smooth with a bit of a kick at the end, or a bite at the end, depending on your interpretation of the experience after you drink Firebrick for the first time. Me, I like to compare it to a bite. Hoppy, yes, malty, yes. Wein would be proud.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours a reddish-brown color with thin tan head. Very drinkable lager with a medium body and carbonation. Hints of caramel enhance flavor
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Clear amber, medium head, slight lacing. Flavor is toffee malt, a bit of caramel, light nuttiness, biscuits, and roasted grain. Has a bit of light hops at the end. Light to medium body. Sweetness is well balanced. Damn, this is pretty tasty. Another well made basic beer.
