Orange, thin white head. Aroma is very faint, but mostly sweetish, maybe a bit toasty. Bready, toasty flavor. Not much bitterness at all. Rather watery and bland.

The aroma is sweet toasted malt with a light hopping. The appearance is amber gold with an average size head that falls fast. The flavor is pretty good and somewhat sweet. I taste roasted malt and a light bitterness. The palate is decent too. I would drink another one.

Peachy-gold, good head, overdone label, screw-off cap, so I dinged it for appearance. Fair body and palate. Slightly tart, mellow/sweet middle with somewhat eggy(?) finish. Fair to slightly above average fare.

Clear light amber body with a small white head. Sweet malty and light caramel aroma. Sweet malt, more caramel, and some light grassy hops.

[898-20071203] 355mL. Malty grain aroma holds hints of toasted hops. Clear, dark red amber body with a quick foamy off-white head. Malty grains flavour has a bit of sweet yeast. Medium body has an underlying mild bitterness. Interesting balance of smooth malt.

Appearance: Pours a clear, orangey body with a thin, bubbly white head. Smell: Ultra faint musty grain aroma. Seriously, folks, there’s practically nothing in here. Taste: Simple, light grainy flavor. Hardly any sweetness and even less bitterness. The finish is slightly sour, but even that is all too fleeting. Mouthfeel: Thin-bodied. Medium carbonation. Quite watery. Drinkability: Might be better served and more enjoyed in a sunny, oceanside apartment in Florida.

Tap in a plastic cup from a hut on the square where all the street performers perform in Key West. Pours cloudy amber with a watery grain aroma. Watery copper flavor is only accentuated by the watery mouthfeel. May the sun set quickly on this mess.

12oz bottle. a very nice copper / amber color. Light aroma of sweet malt. Flavor is very light. Decent malt flavor. Thin bodied, even thinner hop finish. Not that impressed. Home Brewed Killian’s...
