12 oz. Clear, darkish copper with a lasting disc of bubbles. Super-sweet malt, caramel and spice nose. Flavor is similar, but dried just enough by some toasted nut and woody-orange hop flavors. Brown sugar and spice aftertaste. Near-medium body is a lightly tingly and bubbly. Sweet but barely balanced taste reminds me of a maibock or marzen.

Bottle. Poured a nice amber color with a medium white head. Aroma is mild sweetness with some slight hops. Taste is smooth and drinkable with sweet malt notes and a mild hop background. not bad

Can. Pours deep amber with a small head. Smells like a lager: copper, grasses, malts. Mild, bitter, and slightly metallic flavor. OK.

Reviewed 7/5/2009 (Draft at Flying Saucer, Houston, TX): Pours a dark reddish brown color body. Small whitish head lasting but small. Lager-y smelling, some vegetable. Effervescent. Malty taste, some sweetness. Not vegetably. Soft mouthfeel. Fruity taste, maybe strawberry-like. Okay.

Drank at Brasil Brau 2009 on HOPS USA Booth. Copper color with a nice beige head. Aroma is hoppy and malty some floral notes. Flavor I could feel the hops more sensetive than Malt. Motuhfeel is bitter..
