| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 30, 2009 Pours amber-red with a fluffy off-white head. Spicy-floral hop aroma. Taste is much like the aroma, floral hops, grassy-maltiness, clean, not overpowering hops but it’s the main taste profile in this one. Slight notes of caramel. Clean, crisp and drinkable. Tastes like a vienna. sjmiller05 (13), Colorado, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 18, 2009 Pours with a nice copper color, thick head. Taste is smooth with a somewhat bitter aftertaste. This is a good summer/fall beer -- good with brats, burgers and other grilled foods. jbye4334 (719), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Oct 14, 2009 (bottle). Clear amber color. Medium off white head which is mostly diminishing. Roasted malt aroma and flavor. Avg duration. Smooth finish with a very light bitterness. Slick texture. Moderate carbonation. Fair lacing. jebert (123), Watertown, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 4, 2009 Pours a beautiful reddish cooper crowned by a thick mop of tan foam. Aroma is hops and a hint of caramel. Creamy on the palate with a malty taste profile and a nice dry finish. Pairs well with summer foods such as burgers, brats, or pastrami.

| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Sep 13, 2009 Bottled. Amber pour with barely any aroma to speak of. Hints of caramel malt and toast with a thin grain taste. Ehh. Bigmmartin (375), Dayton, Ohio, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 10, 2009 On tap at a local party. Not too bad really. A little sweet with a touch of hops. It has some flavor, so I can’t complain too much. drowland (1429), Tallahassee, Florida, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 26, 2009 12oz bottle quite awhile ago. One of the better reds I had at the time - better than Killian’s or Smithwicks, but not as good as the craft reds elsewhere in America. MoDog (927), Griffith, Indiana, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 18, 2009 12oz bottle served in a shaker. Poured a clear copper red hue with a thin, light tan head that disappeared in a few seconds. The aroma was surprisingly rich and malty. Full of caramel and light toast. The flavor had sweet toasted malt, caramel, and a quick crisp hop bite at the finish. Medium-bodied with a light amount of prickly carbonation. Actually pretty decent. A nice flavorful lager.
