Jan 30, 2009 Reddish amber in color with a nice persistent off white head. Good smell that has a balance of hop and malt. Nice hop bite in the taste that fades into a light malty sweetness.

Jan 4, 2009 Poured from the bottle into a double walled pint glass. Pour produced a dark amber body, topped with an off white head of foam, featuring decent lacing. Sweet, nutty aroma, kind of like pecan pie. Crisp mouthfeel, with a sour flavor, crossing over to dry bitterness at the end. Citrus notes on the palate, with a dry hops note lingering at the end. The beer goes down easily enough, though the bitterness lingers a little too long for my liking.

Dec 26, 2008 12oz bottle. Pours a clear amber body with a small, creamy, beige head that dissipates slowly and leaves a nice lacing. Aroma is malt dominated with a good amount of caramel and toffee. Some nuttiness and hop characters. Taste is similar to the aroma. Well rounded and sweet. Finishes with a little bit of lingering bitterness. Medium bodied and creamy. Overall, its a nice, smooth, easy drinking beer that doesnt stand out, but is quite enjoyable.

Nov 28, 2008 Great Lakes Eliot Ness is a very clear, very sparkling amber beer with a very dense, creamy, off-white head that shows outstanding retention and lacing. It has a very fresh, malty aroma with maybe a bit of citrus. It has a medium-light body with a dry finish. It’s a mellow flavor that’s a touch sweet, with a slightly fruity bitterness.
