doubleo (765), San Diego, California, USA Mar 22, 2008 On-tap at Typhoon Saloon in PB. Pours a vibrant amber color with a crisp white head that leaves just spots of lace. I don’t smell anything. Tastes light and caramelly malty sweet, lingering sugar flavors. Medium, weak body, coats the mouth a bit, subdued carbonation
Aurelius (2469), Tallahassee, Florida, USA Aug 27, 2008 Two words: Fat Tire. Great bottle and label - the dog totally captures my stupid mutt when he’s in the car - clear medium amber. Sweet malty aroma. Pretty drinkable, fruity, doughy/starchy mouthfeel. Beer_2000 (1198), Kristiansand, Norway Aug 10, 2008 355 ml bottle. Clear amber body with a nice, creamy off-white head. Aroma is floral, fruity with notes of caramel. Flavor is fruity, sweet, bitter, caramel. Medium body and balanced sweetness. Bittersweet finish. Total impression is quite nice, not totally in balance but very easy to drink. timfoolery (344), California, USA Aug 7, 2008 This one had a super-light pine flavor to complement the maltiness. The palate was very controlled, but not so much as to limit the flavor. I think they improved this beer recently. MrMojave (1), , Oregon, USA does not count Aug 2, 2008 Wonderful flavor that leans towards the malt side but has an almost subtle hop presence. daknole (699), Plantation, Florida, USA Jul 18, 2008 Pours an amber color, nice looking beer. Mostly white head, decent size. Aroma is pretty nice with malts, hops, spice and maybe some sweet smelling notes. Flavor is malty but lacks some body and character. Not the worst, not even close to a top tier amber either.
