Oct 31, 2004 Bottle. Poured a smooth off-white head with fair lacing, semi-transparent, fast rising carbonation, and an orange brown hue. Malty and sweet aroma. Lightly bitter, malt and some caramel in the taste. Tingly and somewhat bitter mouthfeel. Medium bodied beer. Just so-so.

Oct 28, 2004 The fact that the commerical description brags about imported hops makes me think Michelob. Uh oh! But this is way better. Pours a nice, headless orage. Malty and a bit fruity and floral. A bit low on carbonation. Hardly top notch but good enough.

Oct 28, 2004 Overall a really pleasing beer. Pleasant malitiness is not overpowering, keeps its flavor well balanced with the hops. Filling, with a slight sweet, almost fruity flavor.

Oct 21, 2004 Bottle: Aroma is very sweet and malty. Caramel and brown sugar. Pours a transparent brownish-orange with a white head that is short lasting. Malty caramel and brown sugar taste with some slight bitterness, sourness, and acidity in the finish. Overall a decent beer.

Sep 19, 2004 On tap, Slippery’s, Wabasha, Minn. Listed on the menu as Slippery’s Red. A little thin in mouthfeel, and definitely pretty light in flavor and aroma. The flavor that’s there is mostly sweet malt with very little hop. Nothing in comparison to how Capital excels with the style.

Sep 4, 2004 Orange color, looked pretty nice. Taste was a little thin, bitterness is noted in the aftertaste. Not a bad beer to drink with friends. Part of a sampler pack.

Aug 30, 2004 Festival Tap: They should look to their Cheesehead neighbors for help on this Vienna. So much thinner and lighter in flavor than examples from Lakefront & Capital. Nothing bad about the beer, it was light amber with hints of sweetness and some bitterness at the finish.
