| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jun 20, 2007 Bottle. Clear golden color with a light white head. Slight lacing. Aroma is light and almost smells like toast. Definitely different. Easy-drinking mouthfeel. Flavor is small, like its name suggest, with a slightly hoppy and bitterness to it. I’m a fan of Anchor, and this is a decent beer. I’ll buy it again. carl4beer (406), Fairfax Station, Virginia, USA

A nice clean easy to drink small brew. This was light golden in color with a thin head. The flavor was thin but there. This was a very easy to drink and taste beer. Light in all flavors. If you didi not sotre right this beer would go south very fast. I liked trying this beer. cking (1041), North Canton, Ohio, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jun 2, 2007 Rated 2/4/07: I really like the concept of this beer, had no idea about the process until I had already bought the bomber THEN decided to read the label. Leave it to Anchor to continue an age old method of beer making that likely is rarely performed today. Light lively aroma a smidge of bitterness and malt. Grand pour, nice light copper color with a monsterous fluffy white head and more than ample lacing. Very crisp and surprisingly filling for such a "small" beer. Flavor is real nice. Good maltiness coupled with a fine light bitterness, simple and well received. Goes down real smooth and quick, this is a great session beer. Love the small oval label on the beautiful big bottle, nice touch. schmidtserland (6), Exton, Pennsylvania, USA does not count | 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | May 26, 2007 Had it on my deck after a 15 hour workday. Should have worked 16 hours. Nothing spectacular. Liked the color. Have after mowing the lawn. riversideAK (2792), Shoreline, Washington, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | May 18, 2007 The aroma here is cereal. It pours a yellow gold with a frothy head. The flavor is really just cereal here followed by some lemony hops. Pretty basic. Light bodied. Easy drinking. Not so much a bitter, but more like a gold ale. Not bad, but not that good. I would drink it again, but not seek it out. csbosox (1082), Prairie Village, Kansas, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 14, 2007 22oz bottle. This will be my second time drinking it, the first time I split it with a friend and never got around to rating it. Pours golden with very active fermentation and a two fingered head. Aroma is earthy, spicy hops. The flavor is earthy hops, almost rye-like, with a biscuty malt flavor and a pleasant, clean finish with just a bit of hops. Not a bad bitter, but overcarbonated for the style. The overcarbonation doesn’t actually affect the taste. Would be interesting to try on cask. Easy drinking and enjoyable.
