October 2009 Beer of the Month Club, 11/8/09

Aroma: Light aroma of grains, corn, and a drop of citrus hops
Appearance: Pours a clear, light golden color with almost no head
Flavor: Grainy flavor, light hops and a not so nice corny aftertaste
Palate: Its pretty carbonated, light body, but it does have a crisp mouthfeel
Overall Impression: This beer is a pretty boring light lager. Not much else to say about it beyond that. The aftertaste distracts from it a bit, the palate is pretty decent for the style, but other then that nothing stands out on this one.

On tap @ ABC Harrisburg. Clear light yellow with a tiny head. Light spicy German hop aroma and sweet bready malt. Sweet malty taste with a light bitterness. This is a light bodied beer with average carbonation and a crisp refreshing finish. Not bad just a bit on the sweet side for me.

Bottle Light yellow, small white head. Mild grainy aroma. Grainy taste, maybe some light hops in there as well. Watery. Short finish. Thanks for the trade JB

Pours a clear gold color with quickly dissapating fizzy white head. Aroma is dry and grassy with a tad bit of sweetness. Flavor is light and watery, slight caramel flavor, slightlly tart and a dryer slightly metallic finish. Overall, decent but not great by any means.

Appalachian Mountain Lager is a clear golden beer with a thin white head that fade and leaves some OK lacing. It carries smells of light grain and lemon. It’s very light bodied; a little watery, but smooth. The flavor is mellow, with a soft wooden bitterness. It tastes fresh and it’s very drinkable.

A decent brew for what it is: a light lager. Though I could probably get the same or better flavor from the megabreweries. Pour was a pale yellow with short-lived white head. Aroma was actually decent; slightly malty along with the corny lagery smells, and the flavor was disappointing based on the aroma.

97th RAtinG!!!!!!!!11111111 Pours thin clear golden with a medium lived white head. Smell is stinky and gross and tart. Made me cringe when I tasted it. Do I really need to describe the flavor if it is that bad? Tart, sour malt, yeast , butter and ball sweat...Not that I know what that tastes like. Ugh. fucking awful. I won’t take a 2nd sip of this. Fuck you beer!
