Poured golden with a nice frothy head. The nose was of bread, some hints of nuts and honey.Flavor was malty and cereal like.Not too sure if I would revisit this one.

Bottle from Frugal Mac’s. Poured a light yellow with a light head. Phoooo... Probably the worst smelling beer I’ve ever come across. Thankfully, the taste was different. It was definitely drinkable, but nothing memorable. If you’re an Abita fan, check it out, but plug your nose first.

Being that my name is Andy, I was naturally drawn to Andygator. I’m typically not a big fan of Bocks but I’m enjoying this one. Definitely has a bite to it and maintains a malty character. Would probably buy again if possible.

Sample from September 11, 2009 Beer Club Meeting. Looks dense! Light amber color. Thin, sticky color. Spicy, almost woody (pine?), light fruit flavor. Tastes like... cayenne? Much like a pale, spicy lager. Is it really spicy, or am I just hallucinating?

Bomber into a Guinness glass (thanks, Leon’s Pub...). Fruity and malty that really doesn’t remind me of anything dry like they say.

Couldn’t get into this one at all. Just seemed like a clash between the strange aroma and the lack of imagination and flavor. The beer pours out a clear light amber/colden color with 1" white head. Aroma is old cereal and corn with a strange...milkyness to it. Flavor is dominated by overly-sweet malts, alcohol and a mildewy grassy note. Reminds me in many ways of some kind of European malt liquor.

Poured from the bomber bottle into a pint glass to drink. The beer has a clear gold-amber color with a good-sized, foamy white head that had good retention and cling. The beer had a pleasant mix of floral and citrus hops with some grain and yeast components too; not much malt character in the scent. Its taste was largely sour, yeasty and floral, with a touch of bitterness and sweetness. The body was mostly wet with low carbonation and a medium-heavy body. I enjoyed this beer, and thought it was solid, better than advertised.
