Nov 26, 2007 Acetyl alcohol nose with lots of phenols. Almost moldy on the palate with more alcohol and phenols. Dirty and hot finish.

Jun 10, 2004 tap@brewery. not sure why they’d name a beer after an australian radio station. piney aroma, a pretty hefty kero burn in the finish which reminded me of the time i drank some lamp oil that i was told was lemongrass liqueur. despite those bad memories i enjoyed it

May 30, 2004 Tap@Bear Reublic Brewpub. Well, for a malt liquor its very decent. Lots of alcohol in the nose and palate, but balanced by a good amount of hops, a hoppy malt liquor.

Apr 3, 2004 This malt liquor pours with a deep golden body topped by a thin head with little lacing. The aroma is sweet and hoppy with slight malty notes and a nice grapefruit note. The flavor is slightly sweet, grapefruity and hoppy with piney notes and a sweet maltiness. Medium to full boddied, smooth and slighlty dry.

Apr 2, 2004 Now this is THE malt liqour of the microbrews. Pours a medium amber with a nice little white head. Fairly hoppy for a malt liqour, but that's what makes it stand out. I would actually drink a 40 of this if I could a bottle of the stuff.

Apr 1, 2004 Having tried two "high-end" malts in 2 days (the other being pizza ports brown bag malt) I have to say this is second to pizza port's as far as malts go. Pours a vibrant gold color with a nice creamy off-white head. Aroma is very mild with some cookie notes. Flavor is almost too sweet with some candy notes evident. Body is extremely syrupy. I'd have to say this reminded me more of a malt liquor than did pizza ports version, so I guess it's closer to style but not quite as good of beer overall. But not bad either.

Throw some corn in a high-alc APA and call it a malt liquor...um...sure, fine.

Mar 2, 2004 Some corn, but not really DMS-like. A little buttery though. Very smooth and thickish, with a corn-syrup sweetness that was a bit much at times. Big hop bitterness helped out a little. Overall, much more drinkable than most other malt liquors I've had.
