Can from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours light amber/gold with a slight fizzy white head. Aroma is light bready with some mild citrus. Med minus body. Flavor is a bit sweet, mucky bready, and there’s not really enough hop to write about - unless there’s some floral. For me the finish is not bitter at all. A little herby maybe.

Crisp, slightly hazy golden coloured body with a very thin, one centimetre tall white head. Aroma of rice, corn, cardboard, citrus, a touch of yeast, wort and not much else. Light-bodied; Assertive corn and funky malt flavours show strong but some light citrus and grassy herbal notes come at the end. Aftertaste shows most of the funky malt and unfinished wort-like qualities with only a touch of sweetness and complexity. Overall, not such a great beer - but that was almost expected. Nice to have in a can, but the beer really isn’t worth drinking! I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Total Wine in Tustin, California on 06-December-2011 for US$1.49 sampled at home in Washington on 15-February-2012.

Hazy orange with a medium off white head. Hoppy nose with malt and grapefruity notes. Hoppy flavour with pine, grapefruits and malty hints. Kind of a thinnish body. Finished dry and bitter though.

Sample at San Diego Brewing Company. Pours dark brown with a thin beige head that recedes steadily. Thin rings of lacing on the glass. The aroma is roasted nuts and malt. Medium-bodied and smooth with flavors of roasted malt, nuts and cocoa. The finish is sweet and nutty with a bit of hops in the aftertaste. Pretty good overall.
