| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 27, 2002 Tap @ brewery. A darker golden yellow than I typically find in brewpub lagers. Good grainy body with plenty of hops. beerguy101 (3946), Newark, California, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 29, 2002 Medium gold color, medium head. A medium malted lager, medium hopped. Full flavor, medium bodied. Nice smooth taste. Mouthfeel is full and smooth. Finish is clean. Aftertaste is slightly bitter. LaChad (1375), San Francisco, California, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 5, 2002 Typical fairly clear amber, uneven foamy head. Cool colors on the label. Interesting hoppiness in the smell. One of the better lagers I’ve had, interesting complexity. Hints of chocolate, decent aftertaste. Drinkable and good. austinpowers (2828), New York, New York, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 20/20 | Aug 3, 2002 Updated: Feb 11, 2003Review for this cloudy beer are pretty solid for a lager, and I simply loved it! It's flat out sweet and very malty. It gets even more flavorful as it warms. Oddly, it has hints of oranges (I swear!). It's Achilles heel is that it's a tad overcarbonated.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 9, 2002 This is the worst beer I’ve had from this brewer. Not a bad lager, but has a funny aftertaste. Tom Servo (424), Arlington, Virginia, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jun 9, 2002 This just didn’t sit right with me. It was okay, but it was a little too much on the bitter side for me. It has a nice head and aroma, but it’s just too much for my tastes. Andrew196 (1091), Katy, Texas, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 28, 2002 Probably the best I have had from this brewery. Nice frothy head. Medium bodied with a pleasant hop finish. Very good lager. unixweb (237), Sherman, Texas, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 6, 2002 More aroma than some lagers I’ve tried, and at first sip the taste is better too. It’s sweeter, with a light palate and bitter finish. The malty sweetness surprised me, and really appeared after taking a bite of food. I had only one bottle of it, and I think I will buy more to try it again. Right now if I had to say what I think about it, it would be very good---but not great.
