Aug 3, 2008 St. Petersburg, Fl. - Shep’s Deli - 22 oz bomber. Medium copper colored pour with a bubbly, airy white head. Not much of an aroma, a hint of fresh lake water and some graininess. Hint of bittersweetness in the flavor with some mild nutty flavors, a hint of caramel and a touch of bland lager. Nothing offensive here - just does not set my world on fire. Clean, even mouthfeel. Mark this one as average. Unlike other Coney Island brews this one does not sport a phallic symbol....unless I just do not "get" the smiling circus guy.

Aug 1, 2008 Poured from a 22 oz bottle at GOBF ’08...dark amber w/ a slight, fizzy off white head. Nose of citrus, floral hops, mixed with a cellar type funk. Great mix of flavors in this lager! A nice hop backbone blended well with some sweet malts, and caramel flavors. The palate was medium bodied, with the lager style carboantion (i.e. fizzy). Easily one of my favorite lagers!

Jul 30, 2008 Clear copper pour with fair eggshell head. Sweet and malty. Watery body. Not too bad, but nothing all that special. I do love the label though.

Jul 26, 2008 Bomber, no date. Pours copper/brown, hazy, looks a bit thick. Aroma is notable for some citrus. Taste is ale-ish, flavorful, if not completely clean. Caramel malt, grassy and citrus hop. Ultimately balanced. Not too far from an APA, though the body has lager fizz.

Jul 22, 2008 A hoppy beer, that I was very happy to try. I was not disappointed at all and really enjoyed drinking it. I would purchase again.

Jul 13, 2008 Sweet aroma of malt and light, grassy hops. Amber with a large white head- decent lacing. Flavor is slight caramel, pine, hops. A very thin palate similar to killian’s. Overall ok.
