Nice ruby goldish color to it. Sweet caramel apple aroma. Taste is of hash browns that are slightly burnt and there is some serious apple vinegar in the aroma.

Staang aroma. Smelled like the laundry detergant soap you would use. Gold body with decent head. Flavor had a decent mild bitter and a mild to medium sweetness to it. Alright beer.

Medium amber-orange hue with a medium, creamy, off-white head that is quickly diminishing. I can’t get over the fact that this smells exactly like old McDonald’s fries with ketchup. Also; cookies, metallic, herbs, dust. Moderately sweet, lightly acidic flavor. Lightly sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter finish. Lightly astringent. Lifeless. Some malt flavors but it’s mostly grainy and salty. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation.

Bottle poured a gold amber with little head. Aroma is malt and hops with a sweet malt and corn flavor. Not very good.

This smelled like cat food and I was sure I wasn’t around Coconut Pete’s Meow Mix. I also picked up some pears in the aroma. A pretty flat beer with some malt showing. The flavor is dry and annoying. This is bad even for Shiner.

(draught) Medium-light amber with smallish head. Not much aroma. Nice malty flavor, slightly sweet. Reasonably full bodied.
