Pour is a pale yellow with a large white head. Aroma deffinatly has some bready malts with a wee bit o hops. Flavor is pale lager bland with some corn and sweetness. Better than any macro as it does have a body on it. Comparable to Michelob i guess.

Can on NW 795 to Tokyo: maybe it was just the environment, but certainly the most I ever enjoyed a beer on a plane. Yeah, too sweet and too many additives, but refreshing and flavorful, and not bad at all. First rating 2008: 5/3/5/3/8: Murky orange/brown color. Spicy, orange aroma with what malt, coriander, ginger, babana. Big nose, not natural though. Sweet, spicy, fruity flavor with ginger and all kinds of spices. Way overboard on the spices and additives. Palate light and spritzy. Drinkable, probably good in the heat, but way too much junk in it.

12oz bottle-pours a foamy off white head and copper color. Aroma is fruity/yeast initially then improves with medium malt-chocolate/nutty, grain/husky. Taste does not quite mesh. Aspirin/chalky, fruity/yeast, medium malt-peat/chocolate/nutty, grain/husky, some earthy hops, artificial sweetener. Thanks jwc215 for picking this out.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured an auburn color with a large tan head. The aroma was sour, tangy and indistinct. The flavor was bitter, roasty and lightly fruity with a touch of caramel. The finish was bitter and tangy. The mouthfeel was somewhat thin. Eh.

Pour is a clear dark brown with an average tan head. Aroma is sweet and nutty. Flavor deffinatly starts out on the nutty side and after the swallow more of a malt is left on the tounge. Its not offensive as that might seem. Very creamy beer but easy to drink. This would prob go real well with a nice glazed ham.

Bottle: Chestnut brown with a head that dissapated quickly. Mild aroma is toasty and nutty with a very deep sweetness. Tastes nutty and roasty, perhaps a bit of toffee. Again, there is a deep sweetness. Some floral stuff too.

Sample at Bodega. This beer is a clear amber-brown color with a medium thin beige head that diminishes quickly. Spotty lacing. Mildly nutty aroma with touches of malt and hops. Medium-bodied with flavors of roasted malt, sweet maple and light hops. The finish is sweet and nutty with a short and sweet malt aftertaste. Just average overall.
