Bottle. Amber-copper color. Aroma is a bit of toast and oh so slightly sweet floral. Taste is a little sweet but in a pleasant way.

Aroma of sweet malt, caramel, fruity notes, hops. Flavour is moderate to medium sweet with a light to moderate bitter finish. Drinkable, but not very memorable. Too much malty sweetness.

Notes from July 2009 Single from New Beer maybe a month ago. Less then $2 I think. Shelf was pretty stacked, so it couldn't of been too ripe. Rinsed Ommegang Anniversary glass. Some broiled ribs in my belly to set the mood. Pours a dark filtered copper with tons of activity. Flimsy off-tan/white head. Smell is breakfast cereal grains, newspaper, & eager toffee. Taste is charred. Some burnt caramel, a touch of coffee, a bit of tea, more then enough metallic & earthy bitters. Unexpectedly bitter. Bark-y even. Grain comes through a bit easier towards the finish. Thinking there's some oxidation in here isn't being overly assumptive. Overly toasted malt with a good bite. Tastes like a hoppy red or Vienna. Not a brown. Feel is a touch sharp. Excellent carbonation. Some weight on the body as expected. The hops are too steel-y, but otherwise, a nicely bitter beer.

330ml bottle at Lucky Lupitas, North Adelaide. 6.15% Pours ruby red with a two finger white head. No carbonation visible. Nose is sweet malt. Flat mouthfeel. Caramel malt all the way. Finish has slight pepper notes, no alcohol noticeable. Solid Vienna lager, goes well with Mexican food.
