Apr 26, 2005 Unique amber appearance with hints of yellow and red. Strong caramel and milk chocolate aroma, with light notes of coffee and gravel. Pretty thin flavour and mouthfeel, with some caramel and milk chocolate. Fairly one-dimensional and boring.

Mar 14, 2005 Average head, white with a light brown body, different for a lager. Aroma is strong caramel and malts. Little else. Light and thin, overly sweet and no hop or malt backbone.

Mar 13, 2005 Light brown with a touch of ruby in it. Thin head. Aroma is quite toasty, grainy and heavily caramelized. Flavour is a bit nutty, light caramel and a touch of charcoal. Strange combination of flavours in such a thin-bodied beer.

Mar 13, 2005 Golden-amber colour. Heavy aroma of caramel and fresh malts. Watery body with light malt flavour. Where did those fresh grains go? I wouldn’t have pegged this as a steam beer, though.

Feb 8, 2005 Pours a murky red/brown color, with no head. Aroma is malt and corn. Flavor is a little thin, apples, bitter fruits, some malt and alcohol. Palate is thin and watery. Thanks to Beerguy101 for this one!

Jan 31, 2005 I hate it when a good friend brinbgs you a beer and you have to give it a bad rating. This wasn’t bad for a lager but that’s not saying much. Copper/amber with frothy white head. Sweet nose. Watery texture. Flavor was thin and without substance. This beer would get creamed up against any Tex-Mex or Southwestern style cuisine.

Jan 18, 2005 Malty, aroma has plenty of caramel, butterscotch, honey and dark fruit. Dark copper-amber coloured body with shy, off-white, head that diminishes to thin ring. Malty flavour has some notes of butterscotch and toffee but seems somewhat flat and papery. Mild finishing bitterness keeps it from cloying. Medium-light body is somewhat sticky. Carbonation is unfortunately almost non-existent. Bottle. Thanks, Degarth!

Jan 9, 2005 Medium dark amber color. Small to no head. Aroma is caramel, sweet and honey. A medium to light bodied ale. Malts are fruity and estery, with a touch of cardboard and honey. Hops are slightly bitter. Not really sure just what this beer is supposed to be. The main flavors are malts, think of a nearly flat watered down coke, and the hops are mostly missing. WHATEVER…..At least this bottle was drinkable; the first was so bad I poured it out before even pouring it in the glass. Mouthfeel is thin. Finish is clean and crisp. Aftertaste is slightly sweet with a large touch of cardboard.
