    Amber pour with odd fruity aroma. I think something was wrong with this...it reminded of the Penn Weizen I had a ways back. Sour, citrus like bitter lemon mixed with sugar. Overcarbonated and thin. I couldn't finish it. I even let it warm way up...no improvement. Yuck.

    An odd bottle to find hidden away in the "Mysterious Forgotten Singles" section of the the liquor store cooler (owner's words, not mine).

    Popped this open, and poured it into my Suntory Draft Beer lager glass. Good head production, but not much in the way of head retention. Disappeared all-too quickly, leaving behind very little head. Good lacing, however.

    Malty-sweet aroma, with a baked bread-like aroma. Flavor follows suit, with the breadiness reasonably appealing. The finish is a bit raw, and the overall mouthfeel is both a touch dry and a touch sloppy. But I didn't feel like I had to "work" to drink this.

    A little old, I suspect, and a little musty overall. But I've certianly have had worse Amber Lager's than this. I could see ordering this if I was able to get a fresher sample (draught?).

    Amber color. Small head. Aroma is sweet malt. A medium bodied lager. Malts are slightly sweet. Hops are soft and slightly spicy. Nicely balanced. Taste is somewhere between a lager and an amber/Vienna. Nice refreshing beer. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean. Aftertaste is slightly bitter

    Pours a medium copper color with small but noticeable head. Somewhat sour flavor and aroma, offset by a stunningly pleasant palate. Sweetly malted, nice...

    Although Although I own stock in this company I can not say I am proud of the product they put out. This one is sort of sour tasting and I would not buy a case of it.
