Clear amber/light copper body, thin-medium off-white to buff head. Bready, caramely nose, with herbal hops. Thin body, tightly carbonated, with light toffee and sweet breads, earthy, herbal hops, with a peppery, bitter finish. Thin. Basic.

Light caramel aroma with a hint of hop. Slightly hazy amber color with a decent white head. Near full body with creamy, brisk carbonation. Caramel flavor with some pretty decent hop - noble, citrus - floral? Seems a bunch. Definitely citrus. The finish is reasonably dry, and the bitter tends to build. This is 50% of the way to Boston Beer’s Imperial Lager. Very nice in the mouth. Best lager I’ve had today, this week, this month, ... It is really good - an ale drinker should be able to enjoy this.

22oz bottle - Pours light amber with a substantial white head. It has an aroma of sweet malt and some light, citrus hops. The flavor is hoppier than I expected with crisp, moderately strong bitterness balanced fairly well by the caramel malts. It’s a medium bodied beer that finishes with some good bitterness. It’s available at World Market around here.

Pours a clear dark brown, slightly orange-ish with a small head. Aroma is present with macro-corn, caramel sweetness and some West Coast citrus hops. Taste is smooth with light lagered sweetness and again some felt hoppiness but more flroal and earthy. Finishes with low bitterness and a lagered fruitiness. Lighted bodied with average carbonation. Gets some bonus points for reppin my old hood, the big C.I. in BROOKLYN!!!!!!!!! I’m telling you this will be a collectors item one day. 22oz bomber, Rodenbach Grand Cru smaller tulip glass.

Pour is a dark brown with a large soapy white head. Aroma is nice crisp hop with a huge helping of caramel malts. Flavor is about the same. Some pine hops with a very caramel malt backbone. Deffinatly not a typical lager but worth having around the house for a lazy afternoon.

Clear copper beer, with a pillowy white head that is well-sustained by the bubbly body - spicy european hop aroma, with notes of butter and bread - the flavor is fairly robust - crisp hop bite up front, followed by some biscuit and gingerbread, then some butter and caramel come into play - some light peppery hints and a long-lingering hop profile - it gets a bit sweet near the end, but the hops do a nice job of keeping it in check - this seems more like a Vienna than anything else, and a fairly tasty one at that.

Very good for the style. Light hop aroma. Flavor has malt and enough hops that I might call this an English pale ale, almost. Creepy label.
