A pretty standard sessionable beer. I think i could drink a bunch of these and hear they are pretty cheap.

Bottle. Pours amber with a beige head. Sweet and grainy malty aroma. the flavor has lightly sweet toffee malts, husky grainy notes, straw, and a hint of bitterness. Not bad.

Poured a slightly cloudy reddish amber with not much of a head that diminished to a light lace. Aroma was primarily of sweet malts. Taste was very interesting - began with nutty malt front end and then finished with a maple-like flavor with low hop bitterness. Palate was decent. Overall, an interesting flavor profile that I was not expecting. I may re-visit this stuff in the future. An honorable brew by the City Brewery in LaCrosse.

Bottle. Pour was light golden with a fluffy white head. Aroma was of crisp malt and rice. Flavor was slightly malty with some bread, very light hop character, and clean. Nothing exciting, but a decent brew.

12 ounce bottle, listed as Commonwealth Brewing, apparently a ruse. Anyway, pours a clear amber color with a medium white head. The aroma is sweet malts, loads of caramel. The flavor is smooth, unoffensive, malts and caramel, mostly clean. OK.

A musty malt flavor lingers in the mouth and makes the beer wholly Vienna. A medium to lighter body with amber hues gives way to a stale caramel flavor. Not bad, but not noteworthy.
