SHANER4 (427) - Green Bay, USA - NOV 3, 2009
Bottle 12oz. - Poured clear dark amber color with no foam. Aroma - sweet fruity toasted malt, actually decent for a lager! Flavor - Toasted cereal taste, somewhat sweet and faint metallic taste. Palate - Very thin mouthfeel and has good carbonation. Finish is short and has dry aftertaste. Overall - Not a horrible beer, it’s just boring! Typical American lager and I will leave it at that.

suprchunk (802) - Heinsberg, GERMANY - FEB 9, 2012
Brown, ruby-highlighted pour. Semi-dense off-white head that fades fairly quickly. No lacing. Toffee and caramel aroma. Watered down malty flavor. Sweet aftertaste. Not a bock.

I had this one a long time ago. If I have the chance to drink it again, I’ll update this rating

PittsburghAJ (3) - - JAN 23, 2012 does not count
Just an average bock. Amberish color with absolutely no head retention or lacing. Smells.... malty and grainy. Thin bodied and heavily carbonated, very watery. And a generic taste. Not bad, just not great. Overall, it’s good to wash food down. Doesn’t leave any terrible tastes in your mouth. Probably would be worth the money if it were a bit cheaper.

Bottle. Pours a pale amber. Some vague maltiness; very low bitterness. Would never guess this was a bock in a blind test. Has macro lager written all over it. But not offensive.

jrodooo5 (79) - Wilmington, Delaware, USA - JAN 22, 2012
Not much of an aroma - kind of you "typical" beer smell. It pours a dark red with nearly no head but good carbonation. The label describes this beer to a t. A decent flavor that is smooth without anything else going on. An all around drinkable beer that’s ok - nothing special.

bpr77 (79) - Kansas City, Missouri, USA - JAN 21, 2012
Pours amber. No head after a few minutes aroma of malt. Not much else. Flavor of malt, cereal, faint faint hints of raisin and nutmeg clean finish avg beer but u can chug a bunch of these

A: Amber.. no head S: Some sweet malts but mostly thin and faint T: thin. thin. thin. when you get flavor its not bad... but this is too diluted to be a regular in my fridge M: Thin, light bodied, but carbonated O: Goes down like water... wait was this water?

Appearance: Pours a clear bubbly maroon.
Aroma: Aroma is light of malt, bready.
Taste: No bitterness, faint malt, sweet.
Palate:Thin, overly fizzy, carbonated, lingering aftertaste.

Summary: This beer would be fine at a sports game I guess, nothing more.
