Pioneer Black River Red

Brewed by Sand Creek Brewing Co. (Pioneer/Wisconsin Brewing Co.)
Style: Oktoberfest/Märzen
Black River Falls, Wisconsin USA

Not much going here. Nice cloudy copper body with a fleeting off white head. Nose is, well, bad beer. Mouthfeel is weak and watery. Taste is also weak and watery.

Hazy, copper ale with a small, white, creamy head. The nose is of caramel, toffee, milk chocolate with floral notes. The flavor is perfectly-balanced, malty with huge caramel, dark fruit and beef broth. Fatty malt. Medium-bodied with a creamy mouthfeel and lively carbonation. Long, malty then dry finish.

Poured with a real thick head which diminished real quick. Was smoking a cigar so the aroma was slightly skewed. Can taste the malt. The taste is coppery tasteing. Wouldn't buy more than a sixer at a time of this one.

There's not much of a head on this beer and what IS there doesn't last. This bronze brew is appropriate malty and hoppy for a typical Marzen and is a bit grassy/herbal, but in a nice way. A hint of roastiness balances things out. Decent.

This beer had a small sized tan head that was smooth and creamy with fine-medium sized bubbles that fully dissipated. The body was cloudy with carbonation and the hue was copper. The nose consisted of malt, hops and some notes of caramel. The flavor of this beer was sweet and the mouthfeel was smooth, thin-watery texture and light bodied. The lacing was fair.

Candy sweet molasses twinged aroma - reminds me of a Belgian. Little to no head with no lacing - bright copper appearance. Good carbonation - very lively with sweet yeasty undertones. Nice thick mouthfeel, sweet, malty flavor sticks around for a while. - would be a good companion to a meal. Has some qualities of a dopplebock - would be a good winter warmer.

Bottled. A slightly corny smell upon opening. Pour a good brownish red beer with a firm head. Dark roast, caramel and a touch of cocoa flavor aided by prickly bubbles. Hops add note of orange and clove.

This brew poured a small head of fine to medium sized off white colored long lasting bubbles that left behind a good lacing and a hazy carbonated light amber brown colored body. THe aroma was one of those micely malted ones with caramel in it. THe mouthfeel was somewhat smmoth, but very bubbly and it makes your mouth tingle. But, it had no bite and just a little bit of the "Red" mouthfeel to it. THe flavor also contained noticable caramel and malt in it with a good amout of "Red" flavor coming through.
