I’ve always liked this beer. Tastey every time and pretty full of flavor. The bitter taste isn’t overpowering or too intense, but just the right amount for a refreshing day beer.

Medium bodied, small aroma. Nice malt character and easy to drink. Decent brew, maybe not the best price.

12 oz Bottle -- Pours amber with a white head. The color is very bright and translucent. The malts don’t present any complexity, and are fairly one note. The aromas are pretty good though if a bit feint. Spicy, bitter finish, thin body.

Bottle. Free, while watching the game. Amber color. Not much here to get me going...kinda thin with a dry finish.

Good body to this amber beer. There is a nice malt base to a slightly spicy citrus flavor.

Clear orange/yellow appearance with a fairly full and balanced taste. Malty lager with a subtle hop finish, easy session beer but nothing special.
