| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jun 22, 2009 Consistently effervescing thru a well-hazed, golden/amber body, topped with a staunch head which leaves a sudsy film and lace. Roasted grain aroma with low banana behind. The same translates to the flavor along with a lagered milkiness. Dry finish, full mouthfeel. I didn’t mind this, but my wife thought it was mediocre at best. ~~~~~~~~~ Draught, GB Bolingbrook, IL. BMan1113VR (2940), Los Angeles (and Dallas), Texas, USA
