This lager poured a nice brown colour with almost no head. Even after a vigourous pour. Scents include smoke, caramel and bread. First sip was nice with flavours of sweet roasted malts and a little smoke flavour too. The finnish is sweet and the palate is a little bit floral.

Dark amber color with brown head. Aroma is light with hints of roasted malt and maybe fruit. The malt flavor starts off roasted and caramel and then turns more pale and grainy. I also get a hint of yeast and spice from the hops.

12oz bottle. Clear golden color with bright white head. Aroma is malty, sweet and a bit if skunkiness. Refreshing pale/lager malt and crisp spicy hop flavors. Very nice lawnmower brew.

12 oz bottle 2005. Cloudy dark amber color beer with decent tan head. Rich malt aroma with some noble hop spiciness. Wow, interesting flavor. There are sweet rich caramel, coffee and toffee malt notes flavors. Some solid yeast notes that combine with the hops to create a medley of spiciness. The finish has the lingering spice with a growing chocolate and toffee maltiness. Certainly a tasty brew worth having again.

Clear golden color with off white head. Sweet lager aroma with some graininess. Taste starts off rather neutral as the carbonation explodes. Then the sweetness and grain (maybe Munich) malts hit in concert. Nice balance. Just beyond midway the hop bitterness wrestles away the flavor dominance and goes all the way to a nice lingering hoppy aftertaste.

Initial possible off aroma, slight banana or something. It has a rememberable flavor, almost like a lager. I just about want to classify this as a typical pale yellow american beer. Same color and flavors but is just a little bit cloudy. Does not compare to franziskaner or other hefes I’ve tasted. Nice fizzy bite with a touch of bitterness on the finish. A little rough when compared to real hefe-weizens or white beers.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy golden-amber color with a medium sized creamy white head that lingered and left decent lacing. The aroma was sweet and tangy with bread and sour malts and phenol . The flavor is overly sweet with sour tangy malts and just a hint of fruity hops. Medium length finish. Medium body. This used to be a pleasant beer but is no where near as good as it used to be.
