jrmac (153), USA Mar 23, 2008 this beer is a Killians killler. So balanced between the hops, malt and dare I say caramel. Seriously a good beer for anytime.
nefarious (65), grand blanc, Michigan, USA Nov 30, 2008 Red pour with a 1 finger head. not much of an aroma......just an average beer. slight nutty and malt flavor. It was offered to me. gilvanblight (360), Windsor, Ontario, Canada Nov 28, 2008 Reddish pour with a very foamy tan head. Head started forming right on opening the bottle. Warm malty nutty scent. Really deep rich taste. Suprisingly strong. Much more flavour then I expected. Even more suprising is the clean finish that follows. An odd build and then drop off of flavour. Overall not bad, but not that memorable. Well balanced. JCastner (57), New York, USA Nov 28, 2008 Pours a dark amber with a slight white head. Aroma is of butter, cherries, and a bit of caramel. Medium body. Taste is of caramalt with a dry finish. Very simple. Not one of my favorites. mcsquint (55), , Missouri, USA Nov 27, 2008 Poured from a 12oz bottle into pint glass
Aroma - Caramel malt with a slight grassy aroma
Appearance - Reddish amber in color with 1 - 2 finger tan head. Light lacing on glass
Flavor - Caramel malt and tea,slightly sweet, well balanced with hops
Palate - Light to medium with carbonation that complements the style.
Overall - True to the style this is made for session drinking. Competitively priced. Could go with this easily if there is no Smithwick’s available
HonkeyBra (509), Lemont, Illinois, USA Nov 26, 2008 Pours red. Aroma is toast. Flavor is decent, light hops, malty. Unoffensive, but nothing special.
