zombywoof (355), Shawnee, Kansas, USA Jun 29, 2008 Updated: Jul 4, 2008Clear amber-orange color and moderate head. Aroma of caramel, malt and Granny Smith apples. Medium sweet, toasty and a llittle floral hoppiness with more of the hint of apple and some apricot notes. Smooth lingering finish. I was quite surprised by how much I like this. BelgianBeerGal (1275), Sabbatical in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA Jun 25, 2008 Bottled. Surprising, in a good way. Classic vienna all around. Great combination of caramel malt and hints of sweeter sugar. So far my favourite beer from this brewery. ILoveNewBeer (113), Iowa City, Iowa, USA Jun 15, 2008 I like this beer. I was hesitant because I associate the term "lager" with the crappy domestic beers that you buy at gas stations.
I was pleasantly surprised buy this beer. The full body of roasted malts and the barley really compliment each other. The aroma smells of caramel, malt and barely. Color is a dark amber and head is a whitish to slightly tan. All in all will but this beer again. topherh (878), Kearney, Missouri, USA Jun 11, 2008 12 oz bottle pours coppery with an off white head. Aroma of sweet malt. Flavor is sweet up front, with some nuttiness, and light piney hops. Kevin (1917), Colorado, USA Jun 10, 2008 copper body with a thick yellowish head. citrus honeysuckle nose. nice sweet uncomplicated aroma. taste is caramel, a bit of apple unfortunately. i hope this was just stored wrong. the off flavors get stronger as this goes on. not pleasant. apple, pear, corn. damnit.
4 7 3 1 6 BigBen2120 (688), Derry, New Hampshire, USA Jun 7, 2008 12oz brown bottle from The Lighthouse in Manchester as part of this brewerys sampler 8-pack. Pours a dark amber with a good half inch or so of off-white head. Smells bready with a fair bit of caramel. Tastes biscuity with strong caramel and chocolate. Medium in body with moderate carbonation. Actually a pretty tasty beer, and pretty damn drinkable. One of this brewerys better offerings IMO. soyorganic (217), Denver, Colorado, USA May 21, 2008 Bottle: dark copper with white head. Aroma has a nice carmel sweetness. Nice smooth and lightly sweet taste. Almost a really nice beer. But I prefer more carbonation and fullness. What I have noticed about the case is that the beers have a watery finish. BREWMUSKCLES (1062), New Jersey, USA May 17, 2008 nice enough amber with adequate tastes of caramel malt, fruit bubble gum and hops. a bit nutty, smooth and roasty with an appropriate buttery finish. the beer manages to be refreshing, substantive and does not quickly bore the palate. this beer does clean up some on the finish and manages to keep a semblance of balance. somewhat of a feat in itself.
