Aspen Meadow Black & Tan

Brewed by Cold Spring Brewery
Style: Porter
Cold Spring, Minnesota USA

Light amber body with a head that diminished fast. Tasted watery but that was ok because I had just fished pulling weeds. A good beer that you would have just to wet your whistle. Alot better than tha Aspen Edge.

Bottle: dark orange, ugly shade. Chocolatey nose, some dishrag and burnt rubber aromas. Dry cocoa on the outer edges of my tongue, bitter unbalanced mess.

Had on 8/30/2000. Aroma is a light malt scent. Color is a bright amber brown. Carbonation is good with a good head. Taste is light and crisp. Starting with a light/medium body it goes down with a quenching feel. Finish is a light malt flavor backed by a mild bitterness.

Sour, plum, bitter nose. Funky burnt rubber. Very unbalanced. Not a good idea.

Bottle poured light amber with a huge foamy white head and thin lacing. Aroma was first of sweet malt but turned into a wet dishrag as it warmed. Very watery bodt with a sweet malty flavor that left a metalic taste on the palate. I bought a sixer of these .you can bet I will be giving a few away.

Medium brown with little head. Sweet, too sweet, with no hops or anything else. Not offensive, just poorly executed.

Pre-bottled Black & Tan’s pale in comparison to the real thing. This is a nice beer, sooth, but is lacking the ’kick’ of a real B&T. Decent beer.

head, head and more head. that’s all this beer had to offer. it’s got a funky aftertaste that i can’t quite put my finger on and a weird spicy malt nose. i’ll pass
