Oct 15, 2006 Bottle from Richard. Reddish colored pour, no head. Smell is malty and sweet. Taste is similar, with no real body or much of anything here. Pretty bland actually. Probably not something I would want to get again.

Oct 2, 2006 12 oz. bottle via trade with IrishBoy - Pours a clear amber color with a small off white head which faded quickly. Light spotty lacing. Has a light caramel malt aroma and flavor. Medium body. Worth a try. Thanks Richard.

Sep 6, 2006 Thanks again to IrishBoy for sending this my way. A very nice dark red body with a very thin lacing of white head. Nice aroma, sweet... almost milky-like, hops and malt with a light fruit presence. Taste of caramel, some light hops... maybe some chocolate powder, very interesting. Slightly sweet and smooth ending, not offensive at all, subtle.

Aug 28, 2006 Caramel, with hazelnut, and malt in the aroma. Taste is nutty with caramel, not a lot of depth to it by any means, but it’s not bad. Much more like a brown rather then a red, or bitter.

Aug 21, 2006 Bottle from Albertsons supermarket in Atascadero, CA; Nose is bitter, not hoppy with some spice notes; Rusty colored with a tiny beige head; flavor shows spicy and some bitterness, with the flavor of an oily fat added that i’ve never seen in beer before. I can see where the first rater wanted to compare it to beef, it might have a light beef bullion note, but not a major flavor. Unique beer taste!

Dec 14, 2002 My second beer of the night with an odd aroma. I swear it smells and tastes like spiced beef. Nice mild bitter tones to this beer, and a crisp dry finish. The beef flavor kinda ruined the experience for me though. The color was a pretty red color.
