bottle - Pours clear light amber with a thin, fading head. The malt aroma is light. The flavor was very lacking. It was more malts substantial than the standard Ultra but still weak and had no hops presence to speak of. The body was very thin and watery and the finish seems off somehow, but it’s close enough to water it doesn’t offend too much. I wonder... do the huge American macrobrews just not even try? Do they deliberately make horrible beer? They must.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Pours a clear amber with a creamy, off-white head. Vague aroma of nuts and caramel. Medium body with fairly delicate accents of caramel. Lightly sweet. No aftertaste. But not too bad really. 060406

2006 bottle sampled blind on 3/10/06, generously provided by Muzzlehatch. Thanks Barry, how can I possibly repay you for this?
White head dissipating quickly atop a caramel-amber body. Clear, filtered, highly carbonated, no lacing. The nose smells of malt, plenty of barley-like graininess. Light dough, fairly dry, with a seltzer-water/carbonic dryness to it. No hop apparency that I could find, but nor did I find any DMS in the aroma. Which is odd because the flavor is almost undrinkable on account of it. Grainy, dry and almond-skin like astringency, with salty seltzer water turning in to seared sourdough and just too much acrid, spoiled veggies. Growing more sour as it warms, stale and not wholesome tasting. No alcohol apparency, but I am not able to finish half a 12oz bottle. No real texture to speak of, just overcarbonation and a fully dried out, papery/watery feel to it.
