Draft. Copper colored, very little aroma. Drinkable but watery and light in flavor. Essentially a wimpy, dissapointing ESB, not worth importing, not worth ordering.

Poured lght amber with a smallish, fizzy white head. Aroma of apple. Flavor is semisweet, tasting mostly of apple with a bit of dirt. Somewhat disappointing.

Pours a yellow/orange color with minimal head. Aroma is malty and a little bit sweet. Crisp malty flavor with a somewhat bitter finish. A little bit of sweetness in there as well. Seems kind of watered down. Not bad. It is easy to drink but nothing to get excited about. Seems like the kind of beer you could easily down alot of.

Perhaps I just enjoyed the company I was drinking in, but this went down nicely on a warm day, eating fish and chips in a beer garden in Des Moines. I picked up a hint of citrus among the corn flavor. Perhaps not the best beer, but a good one with pub grub. Visit The Royal Mile Pub when you’re in town.

Cool name..I would but it for someone on that alone. Bottle poured a nice copper color with no head and I could not detect much of an aroma. Taste is ok, with a medium body a little spice..not bad at all.

It just didn’t work for me when I drank this one. To me just a little below average beer and maybe with some more Courage I could like it.

Pours amber with a big, white head. Aroma of malt, slight coffee, and corn flakes. Tastes malty, corn flaky, with some toffee at the finish. Medium to light palate, with a slightly dry finish.
