| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 20, 2006 Bottle 51F Lager Glass. Very light aroma, maybe a touch of metalllic hops, with a bit of sweet hay and a light malt. Reminds me of some german pilsners. A very nice copper color with a white head that lasts decently. The appearance is very clear and looks very nice. Good taste light malts, balanced with decent hops, nothing to big either way, but pretty damn enjoyable, easily drinkable as well. Really nice balance very subtle tastes. Light palate lighter carbonation makes it easy to drink. I am glad they don’t call this an octoberfest beer, which many other brewers probably would.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Oct 17, 2006 Aroma - Light... I could hardly smell it. Perhaps maybe another time I might give the aroma a higher rating.
Appearance - Dark copper. Very pretty but I can just barely see through it. Thin white head. Nice
Flavor - I could taste it all the way down. Not overwhelming. Very good very smooth I like it alot.
Palate - Smooth and full. Pleasant nothing special but pleasant enough to give it a 4. Moderate thickness.
Overall - Very good brew. Color me insane but I think this and scotch wiskey is somewhat romantic. Just wish I had a lager glass to drink it in (if I dont have the right glass it goes in my family guy mug). I would recomend this to anyone in Missouri.
