Pours a fairly dark amber with a very subtle aroma. It has a mild malt flavor with a little bitterness and decent carbonation.

Good cheap beer. Have drank a few of these in my time and they are not a true bock, as the style says that it is an American Dark Lager.

Bottle thanks to Colin. Pours out a clear deep shade of amber with a small white head. Sweet sticky malts and caramel on the nose. Taste is much the same, very sweet, lots of caramel and sweetness, hops are probably there, but I cant’ find many of them. For a mass distributed beer, not bad.

Clear dark amber pour little white head no aroma taste of caramel and alcohol nothing special but not bad kinda bready aroma and taste

A brown beer with a fast disappearing head. Not much aroma, some malt. The taste is smooth, & a clean tasting beer that is better on tap & is best served ice cold

12 oz bottle poured into glass. Pours a darker copper, small offwhite head that dies to a film, laces some. Largely transparent. Aromas are a light caramel darker malt edge, a touch skunky, with light floral. A bit vague overall. Initial is a mellow lighter brew, packing some caramel and darker malts, faint toastiness, slight sweetness, smooth as it goes down. A touch prickly from the carbonation, a bit of mellow toastiness and sweet caramel. Faint bitterness in the finish. Overall, a nicer mas distributed beer. Overall, a bit lacking on the palate and could use a bit more flavor. Not bad though, better than a macro lager.

Finally tried the beer featured in "My New Haircut: Redneck Edition." Was not too impressed. Aroma is muted with caramel, roast, and grain. Flavor is malty with caramel, mild roast, and nuts. Palate is lighter than I’d like. Slightly sub-par overall.

Decent little brew, flavor is a light sweet malty flavor. Not a lot of depth overall but refreshing none the less.
