| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Jun 5, 2008 Objectively speaking:
A simplistic and inoffensive pale lager
I like:
Clean flavour profile. Soft herbal hoppiness.
I dislike:
Rather dull grainy malt lineage. The key to this type of beer is to expose the taster to a trove of freshness and this is not quite managed here although no signs of age are noticeable either. Quick-finished.

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Jan 26, 2008 Not much better than a BMC lager here. Poured to a golden yellow with medium-thick white head that dissipated quickly and left little lacing. Aroma was grainy with little else to offer, and the flavor was no better.
Not even a good session beer. Not much good to say about this one. Pwn3d (1073), Manhattan, New York, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 2/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Jan 10, 2008 Had an Altbier from Otter before this and I was pleased with it. Unfortunately, I cant say the same thing about this one. Offensive and the hops are a bit off. This is not properly classified/ jredmond (1040), New Jersey, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 2/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Jan 9, 2008 A premium lager???? No way. This beer had a small aroma (maybe some hops). The body was clear orange-yellow. The taste was ’nasty ass.’ glaze0101 (79), USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/20 | Nov 13, 2007 My least favorite of the Otter Creek beers. Great for getting drunk though. davidoc (113), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 5, 2007 Not a tremendously distinctive experience. Medium yellow/brown in color; average taste. Heathen (800), Riverside, New Jersey, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Oct 14, 2007 THOUGHTS: A trade withe my brother. Probably wouldn’t have bouth this on my own and I probably won’t try it again. If I wast a lager I’ll have a Sam Adams. Not awful, but nothing special.
TECHNICAL: Bottle. Poured a clear, light to medium yellow with nice carbonation threads and an average to large, sudsy, white head that slowly diminished and kept a thin cap leaving a fair, crytal looking lace.The aroma was lightly malty and light to moderately grassy hops with light yeast. The initial flavor was lighlty sweet and bitter, while the finish was moderately bitter and sour with an average duration. The flavor was lightly malty moving to a more bitter hop finsh with a little more malt coming back in the throat. The light body was a little dry but mostly watery with fizzy carbonation and a metallic finish.
