Part of a "mystery six pack" that sounded a lot more fun than it really was. I’ve had this before just never rated it. Aroma is weak but I suppose malty and sweet. Appearance is a amber/red with thin white head. Taste is slightly bready but doesn’t really quite reach the flavor i think it is trying for. Pretty much mediocre at best.

its great at first but once you drink it for a while you will find yourself stopping and saying "why am i holding this bottle of ape sweat in my hands? did a fat guy fart in this while i was in the restroom?"

Draft. And surprisingly, not as bad as I expected. Dark red with a decent white head. Malts on the nose and in the flavor. Nothing amazing, but all in all not that bad.

This is one of my cheap every day beers. It has a light red color and a fairly average white head. The aroma is well balanced between hops and malts while the taste is a little more on the sweet and malty side. For a cheap beer this one isn’t too bad to keep in the fridge.

On tap. Aroma was nowhere. Average sized, white, mostly diminishing, foamy head. Clear, medium amber/red body with no lace. Flavor is metallic. Palate is light and watery. Lively carbonation with a metallic finish. Coors light with red food coloring.

Sweet, fairly malty, aroma. Has some fruit mash notes and a touch of honey. The body is a very clear amber/tea color with a rapidly diminishing, lazy white head. Light bodied fore. Clean with a malt dominated sweetness. Caramel notes are strongest int he finish. Doesn’t get awful when it warms. Really not a bad beer. I certainly crave a lot more flavor concentration, but I am not turned off byt his at all.
