I put three bottles of it in there and have to say its alllllright. At first its pretty malty and it leaves sort of a metallic aftertaste, witch in this case is not a bad thing, but I have gotten used to the wheat beers in my stein. I will stick to my franizkaner but a nice change. raginghophead (12), USA

But the recipe has changed, and not for the better. Does not have the same smooth qualities as other years. But still a great beer! beerinmarch (2829), Washington, USA

Pours dark amber with a tall white head. Very smooth and creamy on the palate with a great balance. otismulligan (34), Yardley, Pennsylvania, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 7, 2009 Nose is sweet caramel and bready malt with a hint of spicy nutmeg and a tinge of something almost metallic (not really in an unpleasant way, if that makes any sense). Taste is light and nutty, a slight brown sugar sweetness and a crisp, just slightly bitter finish. Highly drinkable stuff, a very good effort at a not so popular style. Kudos lakefront. thooper41 (386), Oregon, USA
