Nice label...Brokeback Ale. Lightish amber-brown colour with thick white head. Bland, vaguely caramelly and crackerlike aroma with unionmade undertones. Fairly light body, a little spritzy with hints of crackers or matzo. Not much else. Fairly clean, yes, but good beer does not conjur images of passover crackers.

Can Poures a clear light yellow with a fairly thick anticeptic looking white head. Kind of like the foam that Hdrogen Peroxide makes on a nasty scraped knee. Sweet corn and grain aroma. Flavor is pale faint flat cooked vegetable taste with a corn and papery aftertaste. Dont taste the ABV much which is a shame, cuz then maybe it would taste like something at least. Thanks for sharing Buck Dich...I thought you were my friend..... BTW, my first rate that could be considered "swill".

The extra strong version of TNT. Light bronze colour. Slightly cidery, slightly alcoholic aroma. Firm alcohol flavour and candyish malts. Not what I look for, but at least it has some nuance.

Almost gold in colour. Grainy, sulphury aroma. Bland, neutral character. Mailed in the rating because they mailed in the beer.

Straw colour. The aroma is a bit grassy, with plenty of old shoe and cider. Bland flavour punctuated with more old shoe. Fruity, with higher alcohols. Based on those notes, youβd think this was the nastiest beer on planet Earth, but itβs actually not that offensive. Not good either, though.

Copper-bronze colour. The aroma is, to my dismay, of canned peas. My mother loves canned peas but I personally despise them. Either way, they are hardly an appropriate aroma to find in a beer. The palate, thankfully, is clean. It is light of course, vaguely malty, with a watery finish and a tiny hint of alcohol burn. A low, prickly carbonation makes this reasonably smooth for a macrobrew.

Burnished gold colour. Would look good if it had some carbo and head retention. Cidery, grainy aroma with a hint of malt. Light flavour is slightly tart. The flavour is lightly malty and with a minimum of hops. A hint of alcohol rounds things off but doesnβt get out of hand. After the aroma, I feared the worst, but this is merely inoffensive.
