Dixie Beer

Brewed by Minhas Craft Brewery
Style: Pale Lager
Monroe, Wisconsin USA

12 oz bottle. Im going to start this rating by saying that Dixie is the WORST brewery in the US. You cant get any worse than the 3 shit beers that they bottle and widely distribute. This one is no different. pours golden yellow with a small white head. aroma of stale hops, lemon sweetness, citrus and bready malts. a metalic note as well. OMG!!! this beer tastes like pure fermented chemicals and broken down ingredients. sour, astringent, metalic and lots of cardboard. totally offensive. TOTAL SHIT!

All of you barrel aged beer freaks - I bet you forgot about this one! The label not only claims that it was "Slow Brewed", but it’s also been aged in Cypress Wood Barrels!!! WOW!!!! This is just your average cornfed, vegetal smelling, fizzy, chemical aftertasting beer. Leaves a nasty aftertaste in the mouth.

While watching the Ken Burns Civil War Documentary , I was moved by this excerpt from a letter written by an unknown Confederate soldier. "Sixteen hundred dead Yankees lie in and around the town. The enemy bursts have now opened in good earnest while I write. I believe the battle has been warm on our left today several miles away. One man in our regiment has been wounded by a shell. His right arm was cut entirely off by a fragment. Directly in front of us in full view lies a drunken Corporal. He has lain there two days and nights with the cooler containing all of our beloved Dixie Beer. In vain he struggles to get away towards his friends. He gets up and down again. Then he wraps his hands around another bottle, and rests after a while to struggle again. I fear that if he cannot make it back he may consume the rest of our brew. Some of the men would go to his relief if allowed. By going one would expose himself to the sharpshooters. One cannot get to him from either side without great peril. How I long for the refreshing taste of Dixie beer. The crisp, golden, headless drink good enough for General Lee himself. I fear that my lips may never touch another bottle of blessed Lousiana swamp water again."

Bought the beer in Amsterdam, amber coloured lager. Something new for an Dutch beerlover. Quite good beer from the Big Easy.

This has an interesting and I guess, drinkable taste. I think it has a malty, slightly different flavor that I find (like I said already)...interesting.

First Half: Very light aroma; lemons mostly. Standard look amber/orange. Very one demensional flavor but not bad. Second Half: Strong skunky cheese like aroma. Bitter flavor hint of vomit. On the first taste I would have rated this twice as high.

Small white head that was mostly diminishing. Carbonated body. Malty aroma and flavor. Slightly tingly mouthfeel. Light bodied beer. Nothing real special here IMO.

bottle. deep bright yellow with a thin skin of a white head. grassy hay aroma. a bit of sour honey that leaves a corn flavor that isn’t pleasant. not as bad as i expected. but this finish is just odd. still better than the big 3.
