Had this with the steak lunch special back in June. Not too exciting but better than I expected. Was included with the meal.

Pours copper with a thin off white head. Smells of sweet malt, earthy. Tastes of tea, some light grassy hints, sweet malty finish.

Clear, copper colored. Tan head. Aroma of sweet malts. Fizzy mouthfeel. Kinda light and boring.

Had a taste from the grimreeser and I guess I said it tasted better then killians. I haven’t had killians in a couple of years, so what the hell do I know. Better then a kick in the head though (literally).

Nothing special here. Tasted like killians. OG said it was better than killians, but he also managed to split a helmet in half earlier in the day while wearing it. Seemed very watery.

Auburn crimson edged color, nose of light fruit and roast chocolate. Flavors with coffee and something...bad, very bad. Finishes astringent and forgettable.

on tap at ellis island: this is just like their other bad beers, watered down without much character at all, brewed for the bud drinker and maybe not even him.
