Aug 2, 2008 NOT THE WORST BEER IN THE WORLD...
...but freakin close
Like sucking on metal shavings. No depth, no savor, no enjoyment. I’d rather have Miller Lite, and that’s saying a lot.

Jul 31, 2008 Not bad, but not great, smooth and creamy and very drinkable. There is just not much substance to it. Has very light hints of chocolate and cocoa, perhaps some roasted coffee. Overall its very thin on the palate.

Jul 30, 2008 Very dark pour with a nice slow bubbling head. I got a nice surprise here. Rich flavor with just hints of coffee and a sweet almost bubblegum like taste. I didn’t know what to expect and after drinking the bottle I still know how to describe it. Need a second bottle. And gosh I hate it when that happens….

Jul 25, 2008 bottle - Pours dark brown and smells mainly of a lightly roasted chocolate malt. It has a sweet roast malt flavor with a hint of dark fruit. This beer has a too thin body and finishes lightly sweet. Not bad.

Jul 21, 2008 Poured from bottle. Looks just like Coca-Cola but the head doesn’t last as long - after a minute it was totally gone with almost no carbonation visible. I couldn’t detect much of an aroma. It was sweet and tasted like weak burnt coffee. It was pleasant to the mouth but the burnt taste was just a tad too strong.

Jul 21, 2008 One of the better beers Shiner has produced. Dark and strong. with a crisp aftertaste, though it does not do well warm and should be drank slightly chilled.
