"A sixer for under $5, and the beer is decent. Hadn't had this in a long time but I remember enjoying a few back in the day. Pour is light for an amber, little head and no lacing. Real sweet aroma, nice fresh baked breadiness. Thin but an adequate mouthfeel. Flavor is alright, but it's watery which detracts from a nice sweetness. Good bargain but not a great representation."

"A very respectable malty brew. It is has hints of hops which add some variety to what to me is a fairly sweet lager. The mouthfeel is its weakest quality coming off very thin and watery to me. But the look, smell, and taste is quite solid."

"This beer poured a medium amber color topped off with a rocky white head that left pretty good lace. The aroma was sweet and fairly malty with some faint hop bitterness as well. The mouthfeel was very thin considering the style. The flavor is fairly mild with some sweeter, slightly creamy flavors with malts being much more dominant than the lighter hops in the finish."

[5] Review by staleyiv from Newnan, GA, USA who has tried this beer many times. (8/31/2006 4:44:38 PM)
"Now this brew fooled me for sure because I truly thought this was a Irish brew but low-and-behold, it is brewed in New York so I am not really looking forward to this brew. The aroma is a bit grainy with some creaminess as well as some caramel malt as well as sweetness. The appearance is a deep reddish burgundy with a small head on top that discipates quickly to a light lacing that is off-white in color and leaves some lacing on the glass. The mouthfeel light-bodied with some smoothness but lacks complexity and balance with a palate that is thin. The flavor is sweet and malty with some caramel coming through with some creamy overtones with an aftertaste that is subpar and a bit boring with a finish that is watery. Overall, hardly an average brew here and I wish I would not have bit the bullet today and bought a twelver of this because I don't see myself drinking this quickly and the price was not worth it. "
