This beer is a clear pale golden-orange color with a thick gushing white head that makes me suspect the age of the bottle. Spotty lace. Malt, fruit and yeast aroma. Light-bodied with flavors of earthy malt, fruit and slight grassy hop. The finish is grainy malt and fruit. Below average overall.

Bottle. Cloudy yellow-straw body with dark sediment, thick, puffy off-white head. Grassy nose with yeast, lemon, and bread. Light body with somewhat faded grassy hops, biscuit, and lemon, somewhat tart, with a bitter, dirty dead yeast finish. Not very good.

Refrigerated bottle poured into a shaker. Pours a clear bright yellow with big bright white head. Highly carbonated, very little lacing, and medium body. Taste is light fruity malt and crisp grapefruit hop finish.

Bottle. Beer of the month club, slightly hazy golden with a huge head (covers about 7/8 of the glass, plus some more on top). It took more than 10 minutes before I could pour enough so I could actually taste anything. Aroma of fresh grassy noble hops, hay, some malt notes, bread and light buttery hints. Flavor has light malt sweetness at first, slightly grainy, and finishes with nice grassy hops bitterness. Medium-bodied. A good one.
Later when I poured the few MLs still left in the bottle, the beer got really cloudy with some brown floaties that later sunk to bottom of the glass. Aroma and flavor got yeastier with some citrus and the character turned to be a bit like unfiltered Franconian Lagers. From other ratings it seems like Atwater Block beers aren’t very consistent so I’m glad I got a good bottle.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a pale yellow color with an enormous foamy yellow-white head that faded fairly quickly. The aroma was sour, tangy and industrial with a bit of sulfur underneath. The flavor was tart, tangy, bitter and a bit dry with a faint citric note and again a note of sulfur. Light body and very overcarbonated. Not good at all.
