From old tasting notes. Bright yellow gold color. Thick rocky white head. Sweet buttery malt aroma. Soft, sweet fruity malt flavor has a firm hop background very much in the vein of Eastern European lagers.

Pale golden colour with almost no head at all. Aroma of pure skunk, some malt, cardboard and just about nothing else. Light-bodied; Perfumey malt in the taste with some bittering aspects. Aftertaste is very clean, no harsh flavours roaming at all. Overall, not the worst beer-but gets too much attention, just for the label and name. I sampled this 50 cL bottle purchased at Arrowine in Arlington, Virginia on 29-September-2004.

Paid: $1.99 for a 500ml bottle. Two reasons I bought this: cool bottle, and I've never seen this before... Very crisp golden with a VERY white head... so white it's almost glowing. I don't know why I expected a red beer... maybe because Dracula's fangs are dripping with blood on the label? I'm usually not impressed with plain, golden looking beers, but this one really is clear and pleasant to look at. Slightly grassy scent, nothing new here... a bit pleasing, but really rather average. Very plain, very average beer, with a slightly skunked/metallic aftertaste. Not great, but really not bad. I wish they would have been a bit more daring with this beer... Opening up a fridge to see a bunch of Drax would be cool, but with the averageness of this, it's not gonna happen in my house.

Like other people I bought this in October thanks to the cool scary label. Unfortunately the beer is pretty scary too. Weak golden color with a very thick head and minimal effervescence. Slightly skunked/hoppy aroma. Sweet flavor but it is completely uninteresting. This beer is going to get mileage as a Halloween decoration.
