Consumed at BTBF. Pours with a deep brown hued body with a small tan head that fades. Aromas are slightly sour, stale malt character, mild roasted barley character, a touch of hops, clean yeast wise. Flavors show a lot of stale malt, light sulfur, bready and sharp roast. Mild bubbles, pretty dry, thin. Pretty mild and stale tasting.

Picked up for $2 at the local beer store
A - light to medium brown
S - Smells like a guiness ale mixture. Very weak but some roasted and smoked malts.
T - Think a watered down Guinness. Very light very drinkable but not wsomething you’d want to drink
M - dry, mild bitterness, pretty disappointed
O - I’d get it again if it’s the only thing at a party. Other than that, not great.

Bottle. Light malt aroma. Dark brown with a small tan head. Just like the aroma, a light malt flavor and a very slight lingering bitterness. Generally speaking, not a lot of flavor. Light bodied.

Black. Lightly roasted in the flavor and aroma with a thin palate. Some grain, but really very little to enjoy here. Thin, a little watery. Regular Guinness is better and this is surely nothing more than an attempt to break into the lager market.

bottle - Pours near black with a fast fading tan head that does not lace. The aroma is mild, roast malt. The flavor is roasted malt, somewhat sweet, with not much else going on. It’s bland and unimpressive. It’s not terrible, but it does seem fairly pointless.

Bottled 330ml @JFK Airport, NY
Dark brown color, good creamy beige head. Grainy, slightly toasted, ashy aroma. Light to medium bodied. Light toasted flavor, vegetables, a bit grainy. Fizzy, coloured pale lager. Waste of 9.99 dollars.

Bottle: Poured a black with a tan color head. Aroma is roasted malts. Taste is roasted malts/barely very smooth, yet has a bite as well to keep it lively on the tongue.
