draft - I suppose Mad Anthony makes this beer to try to get Bud swigging patrons to buy it instead. It tastes like a typical macrobrew pale lager, which is to say that it tastes mostly like water. Very thin body, inoffensive but unimpressive flavor. I’ll give it an edge over Bud, but that’s about it.

draft - Thin, long lasting head, some lacing. Aroma of roast malt and bourbon. Pours opaque, pretty much black. Tastes lightly carbonated with a nice, full body. The malt and hops are well balanced. Roasted malt, coffee, and chocolate flavors as is typical for the style, but the barrel aging makes a huge difference as the bourbon flavor really comes through. Very smooth, nice and warming, and leaves a pleasant malty finish. The bartender tells me the alcohol content is over 10%. If that’s accurate, wow, it doesn’t taste like it. Well done. The dec. 08 version was every bit as good with smooth, wonderfully balanced bourbon. World class is right.

12 oz bottle - The hops give this ale the characteristic pale ale bite, and to me anyway it’s a nicely balanced bite. You have to like your hops for this one, but it’s not overpowering.

Seemed to me to be a straight-forward IPA with little complexity. Citrus and pine aroma and citrus and pine taste. Medium bitterness. I wouldn’t turn my nose up at this, but not as interesting as many other IPAs.

Bottle. Nice fresh raspberry malt aroma. Ruby red color - cloudy but next to no head. Flavor a disappointment - watery raspberry flavor - little malt flavor and no hops. Pretty blah. Rerate 5/30/07 - better flavor and body - flavor more tart and full.

(draft- Indiana brewers fest) Rather nondescript schwarzbier. Clear brown with barely no aroma, sweetish malt but no hops to compliment. Boring.

Courtesy of Kahn's in Indy. This beer is a bright amber color with a thin but lasting eggshell white head. Thin lacing all the way to the bottom. The aroma is really nice citrus and hops. Medium-bodied and easy to drink with a solid hops flavor that is both floral and citrusy. The finish is fairly bitter and lasting. Overall I am rather impressed with what a good APA this turned out to be.

Water, water, everywhere and plenty a drop to drink. I saved the Blonde for last, considering its eerily hydrogen-and-oxygen appearance. I suppose this substitutes for a drinking fountain. Pale, thin-bodied, and nothing to note in the aroma. I detected very light, almost non-existent malts and a slight sourness in the aftertaste. Light and weak. If you ever swim in a pool of Mad Anthony Blonde Lager, remember to keep your mouth shut.

I agree with the previous reviewers that this one could be part of an all-nighter. Still, I'm not fond of the Auburn, although I must admit I'm not much of a Vienna fan. Copper body was topped by a thin, off-white head. Strong wet socks aroma and tanginess to boot. Malty flavor- especially caramel. Very thin body.

Not too many notes on the ESB. Poured a copper color, with a thin white head. Aroma of light malts and earthy hops. Nice flavor though- toasty malts, wood, and slightly bitter, earthy hops dominated the palate. I would drink this again.
