hopdog (5527), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 25, 2008 12oz bottle. Poured a medium and murky amberish/copper color with an averaged sized off white head. Aromas of lot sof butter & buttered popcorn. Couldn’t get around that smell. Tastes of less butter (but there) with caramel. KingpinIPA (842), Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Mar 29, 2008 Amber color. Smell of malt, hops, roasted nuts and caramel. Taste the same but has a lighter caramel taste. Nice and bitter in the aftertaste. esjaygee (1467), Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA Mar 16, 2008 12oz bottle from the three cellars. Cloudy yellowish orange with no head. Light aroma, tangy taste though a little flat. Tough to put my finger on this one though I enjoyed it and would have another. Cornfield (4892), Oak Forest, Illinois, USA Feb 13, 2008 Is this really retired? I checked the brewery website and it (the site, at least) seems alive & well. Besides advertising a St. Valentine’s Dat party for tomorrow, it tells me that I can buy this beer at the shop where I indeed bought it. Any Wisconsonians out there know for sure?
The body is a pale golden amber and its modest but well sustained head does no lacing. It has an aroma of sweet buttered caramel and dry white bread toast. A touch of apple is added to the flavor, the butter vanishes, and an earthy bitterness is added that tastes somewhat overly soiled in the finish.

jbuzz (658), South Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Feb 6, 2008 Bottle from Three Cellars.
This left a bad after taste. Very skunky. I found none of the fruity tastes the other raters did. Noting redeaming here.
Skyview (4007), Papoose Jct., Minnesota, USA Sep 9, 2007 On draught at the City Lounge in Cudahy, Wisconsin. Pours a coppery amber brew with a slowly dissolving white head that has a good lacing and texture. Aroma of sweet caramel malt, roasted nuts, and a touch of citrus zest. Taste is medium bodied, lightly carbonated with a light pale ale/citrusy flavor. Finish is slightly metalic, semi-dry with a good balance of citrus and caramel malt flavors. prosqtor (408), Appleton, Wisconsin, USA Aug 31, 2007 Rated from memory. From the tap at Landmark 1850 in Milwaukee. A pretty good ale, it’s a good session ale. JohnnyOS (646), Golden, Wisconsin, USA Feb 19, 2006 On tap at the Landmark in Milwaukee WI. Pours a darker amber color with tan head. Aroma of a caramel, sweet malts and some nuttiness. Flavor follows aroma, but adds some hoppiness. Very drinkable and quite good.
