[1] Review by mhot55 from staten island, NY, USA who has tried this beer a couple times. (5/2/2007 6:13:40 PM)
"Lends itself towards a macro with a little more malt flavor. Still has that stale average taste with some hop bitterness up front and at the finish. still better than mass produced brews though."

"Saranac Traditional Lager...can you say 'macro'. Good I thought you could. This beer poured a golden colored body. It tasted like a macro lager. Sort of bland and made for the masses. Not bad...but not for me. "

"From the winter beer sampler. Medium golden body with a small white head. The aroma is light raw potato with some grassy tobacco. The taste is potato skins with some carrots and a fairly spicy black pepper finish. However, as you drink, you begin to get a sweet heather like note. Weird finish. This would be decent as a session brew. "

[5] Review by Bitte Ein Bit from Bristol, CT, USA who has tried this beer once. (12/4/2005 7:11:06 PM)
"Golden color, perils racing up to make a small white head, head fades fast with no lace. Aroma is a bit grain-ish, mild grass and a light hint of malt. Taste is watery up from then a bitter stint, and a sweet middle and an ever so light bitter finish. Better than most (all) macro’s."
