Jan 10, 2007 Is this really an Anchor? Color is gold, almost neon gold, not much aroma. Taste is dangerously close to a 40, sour, grainy, mouthfeel is a little too thick for this caliber of beer.

Dec 31, 2006 Bottled. Beer is clear, light brown. Head is initially small, white, frothy. Diminishes quickly and mostly.<P>
The aroma is unfortunately husky and dull. It’s malty with moderate notes of very husky toasted grain, moderate notes of cereal/dog chow; Hoppy with light notes of flowers, resin; Yeasty with a light note of dough; Odd blend of alcohol note and floral hop creates a hairspray-like tone.<P>
The flavor is lightly sweet, lightly bitter, lightly-to-moderately acidic with a short, husky, trace bitter finish.<P>
The body is light, the texture is watery and the carbonation is lively.

Dec 27, 2006 Bottle. Clear orange color with bubbly off white head that reduced quickly into a lasting foamy top. Aroma is of light malty caramel and cereal grain with skunky/grassy hops. Dry on the tongue. Tastes of skunky hops, hay, and light grain. Mild hop bitterness throughout with a pleasant grainy aftertaste. Reminiscent of Heineken, Grolsch, and other pale Euro beers, but better.

Dec 22, 2006 Updated: Dec 29, 2006Bottle. Poured clouly yellow, with not much head. Very little nose and what there is is of hops and grain. Watery mouthfeel. Flavor is very mild. Not much to this. This may be traditional but that doesn’t make it a good brew. Update: Had a second bottle of this. This time I drank it first, instead of following an IPA which may have spoiled the comparison. Feel a little beter about it this time. Actually faiirliy decent drinking beer. I am raising the rating to better represent what I think is a fair assesment.

Dec 18, 2006 Bottle. Poured a slightly hazy golden color. Not to much aroma, a littl ebit of bitterness. Clean, bitter finish, nice mouthfeel for a "small" beer. Has all of the traditional bitter qualities. Slightly fruity, yet malty with a clean bitter aftertaste. I enjoyed this beer and its great that its low in ABV, can have something else afterwards.

Nov 24, 2006 This stuff is horrible. Terrible aroma of water and grains. Light brown appearance. The palate is watery thin. The taste is watery and grainy. This ranks right up there with Miller Light in my book.
