Apr 19, 2009 Amber, copper pour, low head, light lacing. Winy, alcoholic aroma. Thick hoppy bitterness, smooth drink, nutty corn flavor, low malt. Lightly carbed. Not awful, avoid in the future.

Mar 25, 2009 Bottle. Poured copper with an off-white head that left light lace. Sweet aromas of malts and fruit. The flavor was much the same with some caramel and spices also coming out. Medium body and sweet.

Mar 3, 2009 Bottle, picked up at John’s Grocery in Iowa City, IA. Opened with Tom at the "What this town needs is an IHOP" tasting. Glowing orange, small off-white layer of head. Fresh lager malt nose, touch of noble hops, a little puffed wheat. Very light and rather dry flavor, just a touch of grassy hops. Short finish with just a little lingering mint. A solid beer, but a bit less substance than I’d like.

Feb 25, 2009 Reviewed 2/22/2009 (bottle BB 12/01/08):
Pours a slightly burnt orange colored body, with a foamy, rocky white head, somewhat lasting. Weakish fruity malty aroma. Some dark grape smell. Watery palate. Nutty malty, oktoberfest taste. Some bitterness on the back end, but balanced pretty well. Easy to drink.

Feb 4, 2009 Quite bitter and reflective of the microbrew style. Has a metallic aftertaste. Did not enjoy.
