Ernest (4481), Boulder, Colorado, USA Sep 11, 2005 Draught.
Head is mostly diminishing.
Body is medium amber.
Aroma is lightly malty (nuts, cookie, caramel), with a note of diacetyl.
Flavor is lightly sweet, lightly acidic.
Finish is trace sweetness, moderately acidic, lightly bitter.
Light body, watery texture, soft carbonation.
About as bland a mild as I’ve had, I think. Like drinking lightly butter-flavored carbonated water. Murphy (1759), Fort Collins, Colorado, USA Jul 23, 2005 Updated: Jul 24, 2005No head (growler), body is tan. Aroma is big and buttery, with caramel and nutty notes, nice. Taste is also very buttery, but somewhat one diminsional. Bitter, spicy/earthy finish to this one. Mouthfeel could use a little work. Needs to be less astringent, more nutty. BeerandBlues2 (3201), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA Jul 21, 2005 Draught. Pours light brown to bronze with a foamy tan head; creamy lacing. Sour leather yeast and caramel malt aromas. Creamy leather yeast and sour caramel malt flavor. Medium bodied and creamy palate.
