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 poured a clear amber with a small lasting light amber head. Aromas of toasted malt, carmel and a hint of citrus. Palate was light bodied and smooth. Flavors of carmel, some brown sugar and a hint of citrus with a smooth lingering finish.

This beer formed a small sized ivory head with fine-small sized bubbles that completely dissipated. The body was transparent and carbonated with an amber hue. The nose was malty and also caramel with a sweet, malty, and caramel flavor. The mouthfeel was smooth and this was a medium bodied beer with mediocre lacing. A very drinkable beer in my opinion and recommended.

Thanks to hopdog for bringing this back from Wisconsin. Pours a translucent golden amber with a smaller bubbly off white head that left some lacing. Aroma of sweet malts, toasted malts, caramel and some fruitiness. Flavor of sweet toasted malts, caramel, very clean mouthfeel, some citrus from the hops.

Bottle. Thanks to joeybgood for this! Pours copper with a small tanned head. Aroma is malty and leaning towards sweet with nice caramel notes. Lighter hops in the nose as well. Taste is sweet and malty with more caramel. Ever so slight hoppiness coming through to balance this nicely. Light bitterness. Body is smooth and creamy with light carbonation feel. Finish bring more of the hops forward along with light bitterness, creamy malts and caramel. Nice!

Very drinkable - smooth tasting Vienna. Clean clear malty aroma - bit of a sugary sweetness to it. Little to no head - but what is there leaves a soapy foamy trailing lace. Flavor is somewhat nutty and I detect caramel as well. Overall, a good Vienna and am looking forward to finding more from this brewer which is not available too much in Florida.

12 oz bottle. Poured a clear orange color. Head was off white and dissipated over a period of several minutes. Smelled of toffee, flowery hops, and dark cherry. Medium bodied and slightly sweet on the tongue. Tasted of cherry, raisins, and malty caramel. Pretty tasty.

Trade with noncaloric. Thin head. Dark amber beer. Very light aroma. A strong inhale builds a doughy heaviness with a center that is still elusive. Full body. Toasty flavour. Bring on the pint glasses!

In the bottle. Pours a hearty amber with a fluffy yellow head. Sally the cat types this about the beer while walking on the keyboard: wssssssbnnnne9oooooo. Decent malty aroma. First flavor is a slightly sour surge. Follow this with a weakly hoppy taste. This is the closest beer I’ve ever had to a cheese taste. Odd. Light palate and well carbonated. Leaves a lasting bitter taste that is not particularly pleasing. If this is an all-malt beer, does that mean that this brewer usually uses adjuncts?
