| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jun 8, 2008 This was a really nice deep brown color for a lager. The toasted name seems to give it a long, smooth, and rich after taste that separates this from other lagers for me. You could definitely put down a few of these in one evening, espeically up in Long Island. chrissy (122), Connecticut, USA

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | May 26, 2008 Bottle. Pours a dark golden body with brown hues. Aroma is toasted malt, some hop character, and some spiciness. The malt flavor does come through in a toasty nutty way. interesting but not for me. Heathen (810), Riverside, New Jersey, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | May 23, 2008 THOUGHTS: I’m really behind on inputting my ratings. I had this one for the Super Bowl. It reminded me more of an ESB than a lager. Not great, but different than most lagers I’ve tried.
TECHNICAL: Bottle. Poured a clear, dark yellow to light orange with a small, slightly off-white head that kept a thin sheet and left fair lacing. The aroma was moderate toasted and caramel malt and light to moderate grass hops. The initial flavor was lightly acidic and bitter; while the finish was lightly to moderately sweet, moderately bitter and slightly sour with an average duration. The flavor was toasted malt then some grassy hops followed by a little sweet malt and a touch of sourness. The light to medium body was somewhat dry with fizzy carbonation and a slightly metallic and light to moderate astringent finish. beerbuzzmontreal (2921), Montreal, Quebec, Canada
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 22, 2008 The pour reveals an orange amber color with a thick, bubbly white head. Pleasant aroma of toasted malt and caramel. The flavor is quite good and sharp, there’s a definite toasted malt character along with some shy caramel, the malt feels also astringent, husky as they say. The body is medium with a creamy texture and medium to lively carbonation. This is a very interesting vienna but it would be even better if the astringent feeling would be toned down a bit. mansquito (838), Boston/Philadelphia, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | May 11, 2008 Big foamy head... amber body. Nice toasted smell... malty, a little winy smell in there too I think. Tastes pretty nice. Not as sweet as many other viennas. A little sour close to the finish. Slightly metallic aftertaste.
