12 oz bottle. Deep hazy copper with a thin white head. Aroma is sweet and slightly worty. Sweet caramel aroma. Flavour is extremely watery though. Light toffee and some non-descript bitterness.

Dark Brown/Orange Coloring with White Ring. Peppermint Aroma. Some Light Fruity and Spices Quality. Can’t Not Picture Peppermint as I Smell and Taste This Brew...Dry Tangy Finish. Your Basic Average Brew.

My bottle has a green label, not gold like in picture. Also has XXX on either side of the "New York Ale" writing. Anyhow. <P> Pours a bit clouded brown with no head. Aroma is malty. Flavor is malt, caramel, no hops evident - bottle age unknown, but based on markings on the bottom, I’d say 2002. Probably drinkable when it’s fresh, but not now... I have another beer waiting for me this evening, the rest of this one is going down the drain. <P>My local store has these in stock for some reason, but it seems that every beer I’ve had (including this one) out of their "bargain bin" has been poured down the drain after rating it. Some bargain, eh?

Dark red color with no head. Aroma and taste are very plain dry malts with a bit of hops on the end. Decent.
