Looks good,certainly hoppy enough both on the nose and in flavour,slightly sweet maltiness in the background on the finish. An above average canned bitter, ok for quaffing, inoffensive stuff.

In the 16 oz can. Thanks to Elliott at the Huber Haus for sharing his stash of this. Pours a soft amber with a white head. I get a metallic flavor. Benign and boring ale. Sorry, Elliott. Lots of folks call this a "session beer." Once again, does "session beer" mean you can sit around and drink all day and night? I don’t get it. Why not drink one great beer and call it quits for the day?

500 ml can: This is a good session ale. Clear amber with a sudsy white head, it has a caramel and bready malt aroma with some juicy apples and a hint trace of herbal hops. The flavor is caramel with a bit of nuttiness. The light hop tastes come through mainly on the finish. This isn’t anything great, but I can see putting a few of these away on a lazy afternoon.

Large can. Pours dark straw with medium, uniform, off-white head. Smells of bready malt, subdued hops, and some fruit/berries. Tastes bready-malty, with some corn flake elements, and some finishing, subdued hops and a slight metallic twinge which gets worse as it warms. This one is on the fringe of being decent, but it comes up second best.

Bottle. Amber colour with a white head. Weak hoppy aroma and a hoppy bitter light malty taste. Medium body and a light sweet finish.

Aluminum can from Albertsons. Wahoo! When I saw the big old yellow and green cans I just had to try them...then I saw she charged me $7. I almost changed my mind....and in hindsight I certainly should have. Aroma is all aluminum, plus a hint of the skunk fluid held within. Yes---I know this isn’t an American IPA, but they could’ve at least thrown some of those Challenger hops into the boil....it did no good to just leave them in the sack next to the kettle. Maybe something akin to maltiness in the taste, but I’m not sure. I’d ask my wife, but I can see she’s already at the sink pouring hers out....damn, she beat me to it. Stay clear of this mess.

Bottled at DBF 2005. Orange coloured with an off white head. Sweet malty aroma with notes of caramel. Sweet flavour of malts with notes of grain and hops.
