| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Jan 1, 2008 (Draft @ Jobbing.com Arena, PHX, Az): Pours an amber golden color, very fizzy. Small whitish head. Strong malty aroma, almost sour. Very malty nutty taste, hoppy bitter. Letting warm a bit. Less acidic, less bitter as it warms. Snojerk321 (1957), San Diego, California, USA

| 0.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 1/5 | 1/10 | 1/5 | 1/20 | Dec 17, 2007 12 oz bottle via HELLBILLY (Thanks!). This beer pours a hazy amber with no head, perhaps due to the screwtop and plastic bottle..weird. Nose is spicy, bandaids, and fusel alclohol. I am guessing this is infected...Taste is just...nasty bland watery.....plastic funk. This is horrid. No carbonation, and ultra-light body. hellbilly (1532), scottsdale über alles, Arizona, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 19, 2007 tap @ scottsdale. pour is clear gold with a thin white head that doesn’t stick around. earthy citric aroma. hard to pull anything out as it was poured on the liquid side of frozen. flavor is mild with light malt, grass and a strangely out of place lager spicy yeast hint. finishes clean with a floral aftertaste.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Nov 14, 2007 The beer emerges from the 12-ounce brown plastic bottle with the twist off cap a clear gold, the head substantial, creamy white that fades leaving a fine curtain of lace. Nose has a nice malt sweetness, fresh and clean to the senses; start is somewhat sweet, a bit of bitterness at the back with the feel to the palate light. Finish has a customary acidity, the hops mild in their spiciness, aftertaste dry, seems like a good candidate for a session beer.

| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Nov 5, 2007 Draft, consumed at Oggi’s Canyon Country 11/5/07. Clear pale yellow with average white head which faded normally. Nose is primarily sweet grain (corn). Flavor matches consistency: thin. Grainy, corny flavor with some sweetness finishes mostly clean with some residual malt lingering. No hop character to speak of. Not terrible, but no prize winner.
