| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Nov 29, 2005 Pours an attractive dark clear mahogany with a thick off-white head. Light aroma of kilned malts and caramel. Flavor has notes of toasted malt, bread, caramel, a touch of roastiness and some light floral hops. Moderately sweet with a little bitterness in the finish. Medium bodied with a smooth texture and subtle carbonation. Overall not bad, but very boring. IMtheOptimator (1161), Bethel, Connecticut, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 28, 2005 Poured an effervescent amber with a small semi-creamy off-white head. Aroma of caramel and bread. Taste is grainy, with a touch of caramel sweetness, dry hops and toffee. Dry finish with a a touch of hop citrus. Wow, this was made by Coors? This isn’t half bad. heemer77 (4312), Savannah, Missouri, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 28, 2005 Dark amber body with a thin but long lasting light tan head. The aroma is grainy with some fresh bread and a little bit of hay. There is also a hint of floral citrus. The taste is light grapefruit with some toast and caramel. There is a nice roasted background in the finish. A well made and well balanced brew. Cletus (5060), Connecticut, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 27, 2005 Pours amber with a creamy off white to pinkish head. Smells sugary with some hints of yogurt thrown in. Taste is slightly sweet with some pretty nice rosey notes shining through. Mouthfeel is a bit watery, but for a product from Coors is surprisingly present. This one felt like a throwback to the days when I considered beers like Ice house a treat. Not bad.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 27, 2005 Adjuncty malt aroma with a touch of caramel and spice. Rich copper in color with a pretty three finger tan head. Pretty low key flavor palate, but it has an almost creamy mouthfeel. Some very light toastiness at the end of a mildly sweet malt base. It’s not bad it just isn’t very big on flavor. Metalhead (572), Lake Zurich, Illinois, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 26, 2005 Deep rust amber color,not much of a head. No particular aroma to it. Initially unimpressive but has a slightly toasty/spicey finish. Not bad for a macro. Cable (286), SE, Oklahoma, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 25, 2005 Sampled from bottle. Pours clear copper with a creamy tan head. Aroma is pretty clean but has some toasted bread notes. Flavor is really pretty solid. Balanced, yet has a stong malt profile (bready, nutty) with a subtle, spicy hop addition. Very clean, dry finish. Medium-bodied, mos\derately carbonated. A well-made and enjoyable beer from the Sandlot. delmecum (87), Western Illinois, Illinois, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Nov 25, 2005 For something stronger and with flavor over their conventional TV beers, this would be a good choice.
