Commercial Description:
The rich amber color and caramel flavor of this beer are derived from the generous amount of caramel malt in our recipe, with just a dash of roasted unmalted barley for a subtle toasted flavor in the background. The sweetness, body, and mouth feel tell you that this is an all-malt beer. The finish has a balanced edge of Willamen and Casade hoppiness which cuts through the malty character, leaving a clean palate which beckons for more. Note: the terminology of "stein" refers to the appropriate drinking vessel and not to a type of beer made with hot rocks.

Bottle... Mostly clear, amber lager with a mid-sized, wispy, off-white head. Caramel and Vienna malt aroma with light roastiness. Caramel malt and citrusy hop flavor. Mild bitterness. Almost full-bodied and creamy with moderate carbonation. Astringent, dry, grassy finish. Thanks headbanger!

Pours an amber color with wafts of caramel malt oozing out of the glass. Not liking really malty beers I was pleasantly suprised with this one. The malt is the dominant force in aroma and taste but it has a bit of grassiness and floral hops that balance it out. With that said, for a big malt beer it’s very easy drinking.

Got this one bottled right from the brewery in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Deep reddish-brown pour with a thick, tan head. Excellent sample of the variety. Plenty of complex maltiness balanced with a floral, hoppy character. Orange, Granny-Smith apple, brown sugar and baked bread throughout. Finishes dry and clean. Excellent.

12 Oz Bottled Feb Wk3. Pour of hazed amber orange, fringes of tawny canteloupe flesh. Oily fringe of white. Rich blow of aroma with freshly grated lemongrass, touches of savory tarragon and a hint of lime-tinged grains. Gentle alcohol glows. On the tongue, a fairly average but quite pleasing soft sweetness from barley esters and lemon water. Fleeting hop dryness. Hints of rusty esters glow in the nose, alcohol detectable. Toasted caramel corners and rising raspberry bubbles. Palate is coaxing, leaving a glistening dab of molasses on the tip of the tongue. Heavily drinkable. Hop balance in plain C is appreciated.

Big malts here. Pours a deep clean amber with a small head. Nice malty and slight hop aroma. Same with the taste. Big malt with light hops mixed in. Very good.

bottle. clear amber pour with foamy off white head. malt, spice and hop aroma. spicy crisp, malty, sourn finish. a little watered down. toasted malts linger in the aftertaste. not very impressive.

Not much aroma and suprisingly little head. it has quite a bit of malt, near the edge of two much. I am sure the reason why I like this amber (compared to most ambers) is that it is in fact a Vienna. Drinkable in moderation.

Darker amber. Smooth caramel flavor. Slight sweetness - real tasty. A quality beer. The sweetness is not overdone - it is not an overly "rich tasting" Vienna. Good all around beer in appearance, taste, thirst quenching...... and at a decent price.
