| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 8, 2008 Yet another exercise in mediocrity from the most common style of beer. Coppery in color with a small head. This has very little flavor or aroma, a little bit of caramel and maybe the faintest hint of hops. Bland and mediocre. markwise (1200), 15 Minutes from Kuhnhenn in, Florida, USA
