The aroma of chocolate and caramel malts dominate. This beer appears a deep ruby red, with a pillowy white head, and perfect lacing on my glass. Malt flavors are powerful, although well balanced by a good use of resiny hop flavors and aromas. A wonderful example of a unfiltered american amber ale.

Picked up a few cans last time I was in the area - excellent amber with an initial creamy maltiness followed by a definite hop bitterness on the back end. Overall balanced flavors with bready malts and floral hops blending well - nothing over-exaggerated. Mouthfeel is fantastic with the added lactose. Good lacing on the glass, fairly mild but hoppy aroma. As a certified BJCP judge I can say this beer is spot on style; Wisco Disco nears the top of my list as an excellent session beer. Can’t wait for distribution to expand.

We love this beer. Looks great in the glass, has a nice mouth feel with a tasty hop flavor that keeps us coming back for more.

UPDATED: MAY 11, 2013 Solid beer here. Had it out of both tap and can. Good color and average head with minimal lacing. Very drinkable amber. Really like this one

An amber beer with a lightly carbonated little white headed beer. A taste of carmel and a pinch of bitter chocolate. A medium body well rounded beer. One of my favorites! I’m going to by it when its in the store.

Good little beer. Nothing over the top just solid all around. Bit hazy, but does not detract much from this great tasting beer. Getting another one. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Picked up a four pack at Ridgeview Liquor in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Pours a clear amber light brown colored brew with an average sized off-white head that slowly dissipates and leaves behind some spotty lacing. Aroma of fruity and citrus hops, some caramel malts, a touch of apple and a hint of toffee. Taste is medium bodied, some average carbonation with flavors of caramel malt, some fruity hops, and some mild resin. Finish is semi-sweet at first followed by a sharp, spicy hop presence that slowly disappears. One of the better Americanized amber ales I’ve tried. It even goes well with a plate of Brunkow’s baked cheese.

On tap @ Savour Green Bay! Pours a deep dark amber color with a very nice white head and good lacing. Caramel malts dominate here, but they are well balanced by the power punch of hops that are added late. Not too overpowering, unfiltered, medium bodied, and very easy to drink. This is a very good amber ale.

UPDATED: FEB 19, 2013 Color was a nice amber color with about one and a half fingers of nice creamy white head in the glass from a can. Aroma was a perfect balance of malt and hops and some nuttiness in the middle. The taste had some sweet malt up front followed by caramel nuttiness. Had a bitter bite on the back end, not sure if this is hop bitterness or an off flavor. A solid beer overall and sessionable.

Believe the hype! Well not so much. If you read the "reviews" it is awesomeness in a can. While it is not the worst thing I have ever had it is far from the best. If you really want to find out for yourself give it a try. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
