Braudog (3463), Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates May 9, 2004 Updated: Aug 13, 2006Decent, but an average varietal that’s made simply as a marketing gimmic. Brewed by the Gordon Biersch guy and sold by a different dude. This is very much like the GB O-fest, but not as good and much lighter in character ... true amber with a quickly subsiding head. Mildly bitter with a crystal malt character. thedm (3406), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA Sep 11, 2006 This draft brew from the brewery poured a small sized head of foamy finely sized bubbles that was mostly diminishing and left behind a transparent typically carbonated copper orange colored body and a poor lacing. The mild aroma was malty and sweet. The mouth feel was weakly tingly at the start and at the finish. The thin metallic flavor contained notes of malt astringent and sweet. Not one that I would likely buy again. PorterPounder (2852), Tallahassee, Florida, USA Aug 3, 2006 On tap at Canter’s Deli in the Treasure Island Casino, Las Vegas, Nv. Fresh lake water aroma, medium orange pour with a soft white head. Some citrusy notes are found with a hint of caramel. Some ripening vegetable notes in the back end. Decently thick mouthfeel with some stickiness. Pleasant diversion. Aubrey (2614), Denver, Colorado, USA Jun 5, 2007 On tap: Clear, light amber. Frothy yet quickly thinning head. Malts were far too sweet, in my opinion (cereal, caramel, sugar water), though its caramel aromas were kind of nice. Hops were very mild (light flowers), providing only a mild bitterness (not enough to balance out the sweetness). Decently made beer, overall, but not a lot of depth and too sweet.
