redlight (1042), Winter Park, Florida, USA Oct 15, 2007 Rich and malty almost smokey. Pours dark amber. Dark malt flavors, caramelly, toasty, hints of hops. BeerandBlues2 (2451), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA Oct 8, 2007 Draught. Pours clear brown with a spare, fizzy, light brown head, diminishing, spare
lacing. Aroma is average malt (caramel, toasted grain, nutty), light hops (grass), average
yeast (dough, leather) with notes of dates. Medium bodied, oily texture, average
carbonation and a metallic finish. Average duration, light sweetness, acidity, and
bitterness.
Ernest (4197), Boulder, Colorado, USA Jul 1, 2007 Draught, Denver ChopHouse. Head is mostly diminishing. Body is medium to dark brown. Aroma is lightly to moderately malty (cookie, caramel), with notes of gum and diacetyl. Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly to moderately sweet, moderately bitter, slightly husky. Medium body, watery texture, lively/soft carbonation. Certainly some unexpected aromas for a lager of any kind (gummy and buttery), too sweet, and not the cleanest finish, but it’s not too bad. Clearly made for the casual ChopHouse diner and not the beer geek. BillKismet (1388), Seattle, Washington, USA Jun 30, 2007 Brassy amber with an evanescent head. Light roast munich malts with slight candi flavors.
