| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | May 18, 2007 Picked up a six pack from Bob’ s McFarland’s liquors in McFarland, WI, brought back to Minnesota to share at Cellar’s Wine & Spirits Friday evening beer tasting. Pours a pale light golden brew with a thin off white fizzy head. Dissolves quickly to a fine film. Aroma of some citrus, light barely malt, some beets/corn character, and a touch of multi grain biscuits. Taste is highly carbonated, light clean cut and crisp. Finish is a bit flat and light body. Served below 40 degrees and you have an excellent lawn mower beer. I am happy to see this historical beer has resurfaced to the Madison, WI market since it first disappeared in 1965. iowaherkeye (1873), Los Angeles, California, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 18, 2007 On tap @ Gray’s Tied House, 5/15/07. Pours a clear honey golden with a two and a half finger yellowish white head--@ least it’s creamy since I only have 10oz of beer now. Good retention, nice lacing throughout. Aroma was light citrus and biscuits. Flavor was a bit lemony and biscuity--maybe even some light corny grain and sugar cookies--with a lightly sweet biscuity finish. At some point there were some grassy hops. Very low bitterness at its peak. Moderate carbonation, light body. Pretty decent. TheDean (785), MIlwaukee, Wisconsin, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Apr 7, 2007 Maybe it’s the cold I’m currently fighting, but this beer has very little taste. Very dissapointed with this beer. keoki182 (305), West Bend, Wisconsin, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Aug 19, 2006 Tasted at Great Taste of the Midwest. Yellow/gold in appearance. Very malty with some bitterness. Quite grainy tasting. I wasn’t impressed, but this isn’t a preferred style of mine. FWIW, the others in the group I was with really enjoyed this. It was a small sample size, so I’d definitely like to try it again and possibly re-rate.
