1.9 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
This beer is good looking in a glass, but does not keep any head, and does not lace the glass. It looks like it will have a rich mouthfeel, but comes across as watery. Additionally, the corn used in the wort is discernable, and does not taste very good. This beer is good for college parties, but not so much for entertaining guests.

12 oz bottle. Poured a clear copper color with a two finger tan head. The aroma wass bland, but notes of caramel and toffee are present. The flavor was nutty with toffee and a bit of chocolate also. The palate average with a silky mouthfeel and good carbonation.

I really do like this beer. I have to agree that it is not a gourmet beer like a great trappist ale or a wonderul stout, but it is refreshing. the carbonation is nice and active and its flavor isn’t thick and overwhelming.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
16 oz. - $4.00 at Taco Mac in Kennesaw, Georgia.
Appearance: Pours a clear, mahogany-hued body with a thin, whitish head.
Smell: Watered-down, run-of-the-mill nutty caramel nose.
Taste: Faintly toasty maltiness with a light taste of caramel and an ambiguous nuttiness. Lightly spicy hops and even less apparent bitterness. A revolting metallic component leeches into the flavor -- always a turn off. Finishes dry with a crisp carbonic bite.
Mouthfeel: Light-bodied. Medium carbonation, a tad bit fizzy.
Drinkability: A plain, dull lager, but when you throw in that metallic mouthful of nickels and pennies, you’ve totally lost me.

At the time I drank this in Texas in the 80s it was the best beer you could get there, and I enjoyed it. Thankfully there is more available now. No reason to go back to this one.

Bottle. Caramel color with decent head retention. This beer is absolute garbage. In fact. It really tastes like dumpster juice. Tastes like caramel wrapped in wet newspaper.

bottle. Tastes like a watered down mediocre schwarz. Unoffensive and poundable though.
