Apr 5, 2009 12 oz bottle from the brewery (Milwaukee, WI) from my February trip there. Pours a very solid dark amber with decent offwhite head that sticks around, decent haze, touch of lacing. Aromas are a bit of a stinky maltiness, reminiscent of a pilsner, with light bready and biscuity malts. Vague floral hoppiness. Initial is light bodied, sessionable, with carmel and bready malts, a touch of spice for intrigue, and light floral hoppy bitterness. Light, sessionable, but still good flavor. Finishes with a nice malty sweetness and balancing hop and a touch of spice that stays with the palate and aftertaste. I liked this, as simple as it was.

Jan 21, 2009 Bottled Aug week 4. Poured amber with a creamy off-white head that settles to a ring. Malty aroma with a hop background. The flavor found caramel and grass hops with just a slight hint of spice. Light body and light bitterness.

Jan 25, 2003 Updated: May 29, 2007Brillant beer. I can not decide between this and Great Lakes Elliot Ness as to which is the best Vienna. Luxurious amber color that reminds you of a great whiskey. Full malt/yeast feel that leaves you feeling very satisfied. Goes great with pizza.

Aug 16, 2006 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.

Mar 21, 2004 Pours a glimmering Amber body and a mountain of rocky off white head. The aroma is rather malty… heaps of caramel, plums, pears, apple, and then there is the hoppy note of lemon. The flavor evokes strong suggestions of grains, orange zests, and strangely.. nutmeg or something? Begins sweet, buttery, and nutty- cashew like, but finishes with a salty lemon zest bite. Palate is medium.. very drinkable beer… wouldn’t stand out as a first choice beverage but it’s a nice beer for the Spring time.

Aug 14, 2008 Poured a clear orangeish amber coloring with a small ring of white foam. Sweet toffee malt aroma, with a tiny amount of nuttiness. Grainy malt sweetness, with a bit of citrus hop bitterness. Balanced and very drinkable. NIce flavors without being over the top.
