Pours light copper to orange with a small white head that mostly dissipates. Some spotty lacing. Hoppy and sligh sour malt aroma with a yeast nose. Hoppy initial flavor that gives way to a sour maltiness with a faint yeastiness. Mild and fizzy palate.

Good amber color,small white head that faded slowly then faded to a slight lace.The aroma was malty with maybe even a spicy side.The flavor was pretty decent but nothing spoecial.Malty and caramel taste with a decent sdweet side and just a bit of hops coming on towards the end.Not the best from these guys but decent enough to push a lawnmower for.

Bottle as part of party pack. Poured dark amber with medium to large tan rocky head. Aroma was sweet of malt and small of hops. Flavor was malt and hops with sweet finish.

I’ll give a 3 on appearance, since it was straight from the bottle. After drinking one, it’s maybe best I didn’t see it. I like the Turbodog from them, thought this would be better. This is an insult to Vienna brews.

Very watery, breadlike but not in a good way. Too much malt that never found its true purpose, fermentation. Sweet, watery, and yeasty. Poor. On draft in the BIg Easy but no head.

Another arrival in the Confederate BIF package courtesy of BigLove. The beer poured clear golden amber with a thin fleeting head. The aroma was slightly sweeter than water and the taste was grainy and a bit sour. No character whatsoever in the mouthfeel. No aftertaste.

Real nice cloudy amber beer, no head. Smells horrible. Eggs, sea salt, piss...a little jambalaya of nasty scents. It tastes like grass and sour milk. Like chewing a nice piece of bark. And yet its an intriguing beer that isn’y completely awful. It definitely has character. If I tasted this blindly I would have thought it was from down the street at Kraftbrau. Weird.

Absolutely nothing remarkable...but I drink an awful lot of these whenever I’m in Nawlins...no really...ALOT! So I’m jacking my rating up to reflect my savoring of those memories.
