| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Apr 28, 2003 A nice malty lager. Easy to drink, with a nice hops bite. It has a nice dark color that is appetizing, as well as nice carbonation. jreddish99 (5), Laurel, Maryland, USA does not count | 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Oct 1, 2001 The best beer I have ever had. This is my high-class sipping beer. A strange, but appealing, sweet aftertaste. Mirage52 (127), New Market, Maryland, USA

Lots of bubbles. Looks more like ginger ale than beer. Taste is simple, not much of anything... maybe a hint of woodsiness, as others have said -- but nothing dominates this beer. It is pretty full for a lighter style lager, not watery at all. Very fresh and sharp. This is a good summer beer, it goes well with eating crabs or any other food in the Baltimore area.

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 10, 2004 I’m frankly surprised by the low ratings. The balance between hops and malt is excellent, with neither overpowering the other, and both easily discernable. No, it’s not a very flavorful beer. But it’s a great summer brew, light on the tongue, and easy to drink. Some hops, some malt, some buttery notes... Not a high-class $10 beer, but a great choice for having around the deck.

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Aug 16, 2004 Golden/light amber color,small white head that faded quickly leaving little behind.The aroma was malty sweet with a cereal like quality coming through as well as a faint hop presence,and maybe just a hint of lemon.Nice malty sweet taste with maybe a bit of caramel and some hops but there fairly faint at best.Not a bad brew at all,granted it could be better but over all it’s a very nice drinking brew with subtle flavors makeing it a brew for the summer time.Thanks to Slob for sending an AD brew my way.

Not expensive in the Md area. Better choice over Bud any day. Ubermunch (23), Maryland, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Apr 3, 2008 This beer is a great alternative to mass market brews... and at a good price regionally. In the summer these go down quickly when ice cold. There’s a lot more flavor and depth here than you might expect for such a simple, relatively light beer. Ludwig (60), USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 10, 2003 I think this is an above average American Dark. I have tried this brew a few times and still enjoy is taste.
