Sep 12, 2006 Bottle. Pours clear copper in color, thin skim of an off white head. Smells malty and fruity, I kind of get a little prunes coming thru. Taste is good, flowery and fruity hops and some malt. More hops than what I was expecting. Fairly thin body, somewhat dry finish. Not bad.

Mar 4, 2006 The aroma is something between nuts and stale feet. This beer is brown with no head. The tongue and taste buds are walloped with a leathery taste.

Dec 13, 2005 12oz bottle
Pours clear amber, atop which sits a thifk fluffy white head with exceptional retention & lacing. Aroma is hoppy, fruity, vegetal and tart -- perhaps some hint of infection. Tart sour grass dominates the flavor -- not at all appropriate for a Vienna, though I’m not sure it should be categorized as such since there is no indication the brewer brewed it to be a Vienna-style lager. Still, the tart grass notes are too overwhelming for the generic "amber lager" designation the brewery gives this product. Medium hop bitterness and floral flavor. Creamy but slightly thin palate. Not doing much for me.

Oct 6, 2007 Plain golden look. Thought I had drank my first Oktoberfest beer of the year but I guess it is not that. Sweet but a touch of hops keeps it well balanced.

May 31, 2005 Updated: Jun 14, 2005Deep red with a nice off white long lasting head. Aroma of malt and caramel. Strong roasted malt and caramel taste with some hoppy bitterness at the finish. Full bodied with a nice heavy mouth feel. One of my favorites.

Aug 8, 2007 This just isn’t my thing. I know plenty of people who drink nothing else. Caramel and smoke with lots and lots and lots of malt flavor. Just not me, though. Interesting that the "serve in" descriptions don’t include "stein."

Mar 25, 2007 Pours a slightly hazy amber color. Medium off-white, frothy head with good retention. It leaves a gorgeous lacing in my Pilsener glass.
Aroma is hoppy with herbal and fruity touches. Apples, mint, oranges some almonds and flowers like roses. Agreeable and solid, very clean and crisp.
Flavor is bittersweet, nutty and fruity with hints of apricots, apples and rose hip. Quite enjoyable, flavorful Vienna.
Creamy texture, nice velvety mouthfeel. Dry finish with reasonable bitterness. Herbal aftertaste. Very solid lager but I’m not overly impressed for a Top 5 for this style. I’m still wanting to taste some European Viennas.
A million thanks to <a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/View-User-31163.htm&g for sharing this one, my first American Microbrew.
