Nice smooth and balanced malt flavors. No incredibly robust flavors here, just an enjoyable brew. Nothing wrong with a simple good beer.

Bottle. Pours a deep, crystalline ruby with thin, off-white head. The aroma is very caramely and malty. So is the flavor. In fact, I was recently making some homebrew and boiled over the wort (messy), and when it hit the stove burner, it put off an aroma almost identical to that of this beer.

Unpastuerized half-liter bottle from the brewery, 12/06. Pours a brilliant dark copper with nice carbonation but just a thin coverage and little ring of an off-white head. Pleasant subtle aroma of lightly toasted malts which, with a touch of noble hops, imparts a lightly fruity (cherry) aroma. Sweet malty flavor with some nice toasty notes coming through. Pretty clean with just a little bitterness upfront and a smooth, balanced, although somewhat dull finish. Medium bodied and medium carbonation, with a fairly smooth mouthfeel. This is a solid German-sytle Fest and one of the better Weeping Radish offerings.

light and straightforward. decent maltiness in the aroma and taste. on the thin side. sessionable. nice to see a fest out this time of year, and this is a good one though not a stellar one.

Bottle Pours a clear amber with a decent of white head. The heads has average lasting. Lacing is okay. Aroma was subtle with hints of floral hops and spices, Had a good carbonation. The flavor was drinkable but not very deep. Has a good mouthfeel. The texture is watery. Has an okay finish with a easy aftertaste. Refreshing and drinkable but not real memorable.

I had this one on the outer banks. It is full bodied and pours a nice amber. It is very drinkable and smooth. Nice taste. I would certainly have it again.

Bottle, OBX, NC. Amber lager - good oily copper color, foamy white head initially, disappers quickly, solid mellow taste, slightly sweet malt and tracing of hops followed by a fairly crisp finish. Pretty darn good.

Oct. 2005 - A very ordinary fest. Pour was reddish brown with minimal head and lacing. Flavor was kinda bland. Nothing offensive or nonenjoyable, but nothing to stand out, either. The best part about this is the cool looking cap. ;)

Virginia Trip – at brewpub on tap
Aroma mild nose , gentle sweetness from malts. Touch of caramel. 6+
Appearance proper ,clear amber with medium off white top. Some lace.3+
Flavor and Palate : Medium bodied with fuller walls. Slight nutty hop character. Gentle slight tartness behind. Mellow with lower carbonation. Sessionable Vienna.

Pint @ Manteo location. Good aroma, sweet, yeasty, toffee, lite cherry. Clean orangy brown color, good head that slowly faded to nothing. Sweet flavor, kind of roasty, but like aroma, though it was a notch down from the aroma. Lite body, thin creamy mouthfeel, clean sweet finish. Good, but nothing to excite. Very traditional Vienna.
