| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Jul 13, 2008 clear amber pour with little head. Taste is somewhat mineral/metallic though. nuplastikk (1205), Madison, Wisconsin, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jul 12, 2008 12oz bottle. Killians was one of the first decent beers I developed a taste for, so I might be a little easy on it. Filtered brown-amber color. Odd extinguished candle/off amber malt aroma. The flavor is malty enough, though with Coors at the helm I’m sure there is a healthy adjunct bill. Mellow sweet aftertaste. This is pretty much one of those beers you swear tasted better back in the day. Jblauvs (595), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA

| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jul 5, 2008 Amber red color. Agree with burnt flavor which had hints of rust. I don’t really enjoy the metallic character of some red lagers. Cybercat (806), Georgia, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jul 4, 2008 I had this out of a jockey-box arrangement at the Mensa AG in Denver, CO. Color is a nice reddish-amber; the sample I had was rather foamy, but this may be a result of the manner in which it was served. Aroma was weak but malty and just a little hoppy. Flavor was pleasing, malty with some hops, not complex but OK. Texture was smooth. Fine for parties. mar (1903), Dallas, Texas, USA

| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Jun 29, 2008 12oz bottle pour. Pours clear orange with streaks of red throughout. Head is small and gone within seconds. Aroma of sweet malt. Not too much flavor except for a little sweetness. Little to no hops detected at all. Finish is watery with no bitterness and only very very slight dryness. I needed something like this to get the nasty smokiness from an earlier rauchbier out of my mouth.
