Airlifter (116), Shawnee, Kansas, USA Feb 17, 2008 Brownish copper color with very little head. Sharp, hoppy aroma. Sweet with a hint of smokiness and hops. A bit thin and watery. Well carbonated. Pretty good, but not great. ford9719 (369), Vilseck, Germany Nov 11, 2007 Bottle. Poured a very dark brownish. Aroma is hazelnut and malt. Taste is ok a lot of hazelnut to me but good. DrnkMcDermott (1831), Downers Grove, Illinois, USA Aug 11, 2007 12 oz. bottle. When I visited the O’Fallon brewery, someone came in and asked if they had this beer, but of course most contract brewers don’t keep the stuff with someone else’s name on premise. But I found this at a liquor department in Columbia, MO, with an O’Fallon type label and the O’Fallon name on the side. Has a decent smell. dark and rich with roasty malts, almost like a porter. Some sediment on the bottom of the bottle, this may be a bit old. Pours opaque, dark brown color with an inch-thick, noisy tan head. I taste some peat, even a tad of rauch, right away. Alcohol seems to be session level. Some light chocolate malts on a base of regular. Some yeast swirling around. Standard bitter backing. Not all that "extravagant," but for now Lemp’s "other" beer after having a lager made. Yes, as others here have said: clean. tomciccateri (496), Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA Aug 11, 2007 From a 12-ounce brown bottle. Pours a hazy dense brown color with no head. Light-to-medium body, slightly dry dark brown and cocoa-like flavor. Slightly chewy mouthfeel. Light underlying hop bitterness. Clean. Rictus (126), Camdenton, Missouri, USA May 21, 2007 Not much smell (allergies). Dark brown, light tan head, very bubbly. Some floaties. Some roastyness. Typical brown ale taste. Modest, no detectable hops. Bit of an aftertaste. Kinda heavily carbonated (not like soda though). Boring Gabemik (46), Joplin, Missouri, USA May 20, 2007 Thin, modest flavors. Nice, but nothing to make it stand out. Might be OK as a "gateway beer". jefcon (997), Arlington, Virginia, USA Nov 9, 2006 Not a very good-looking beer, but generous enough malts and nice raosted flavors. Palate is a little rough with too much carbonation. A bit sweet and not very complex for a brown ale. PhillyBeer2112 (2084), Orange Park, Florida, USA Aug 15, 2006 Pretty ordinary but not bad. Somewhat malty, with molassses, chocolate chip cookies, and a mild roast in the finish. On the light side, with a clean profile. Brown in color without much head.
