Amber colored beer with an off white head. Mellow aroma, light caramel, even lighter hops. Flavor starts out caramelly and turns quite grainy. Palate is light and not well-rounded. Decent at best.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a clear amber with very little off-white head. Some sweet caramel malts in the aroma, but not too strong. Clean on the palate, but a bit metallic. Light mouthfeel. Flavor was primarily caramel malt and metal, with little appreciable hop presence. Not one I’d probably pick up again.

12 oz bottle from sampler pack - Pours amber with a decent offwhite head. Aroma of carmel malts. Flavor is of caramel malts and brief hops. A slight metallic aftertaste kills the flavor of this one though. On the palate this is medium bodied and fairly crisp and clean.

This beer wants to be good, but it just has no sustenance. It looks decent at first in a glass and then gets disorganized. Metallic flavor from what I guess is the capping process is predominate in every swig. Decent in a pinch. Turbodog is much more interesting.

Clear copper with a medium off-white head. Aroma of caramel and some floral hops. Flavor has notes of caramel, toffee, some toastiness and a minor hop presence. Not that sweet, not that bitter. Has an unpleasant metallic tinge in the finish. Medium body, smooth texture and lively carbonation.

Not bad-looking in the glass. Pours with an inch of off-white head, which diminishes rapidly. Clear and amber in color. Aromas are, yes, light and bready. The malts show through a bit on the aroma and the taste. There is no real hop bite to the beer and little complexity. Lots of water. Very drinkable stuff, however. A nice summer companion.
