On draft at the brewpub it is a clear effervescent golden color with a slight head. The aroma is malty and the taste is mild with indistinct bitter flavors that linger to finish.

Thanks to Danny. Pours dark brown with a frothy head. Aroma is a mix of milk chocolate, red berry, plum. Taste is sweet, cream, rich milk chocolate with an understated tart note. The end evinces a mild, roasted bitterness. Medium bodied. Average carbonation for the style. Overall, well balanced and a real pleasure to drink. Very good

This is for the 6.0 abv version.
Can pours a light gold brew with an inch of foam, decent lacing.
Smells like an American Lager. Some grain, hints of caramel malt, light hop presence.
Tastes better than it smells. The grain and malt are average for the style. The hops, to me, impart a delicate spiciness.
Above average and quite drinkable.
Low hop content but what's there is on the spicy side. Good Lager.

Can @ my uncle’s house in Lander, WY. Pours a deep brown appearance with a medium-sized dark brown head and some lacing. Aroma has char, burnt wood, toffee, chocolate, and cola. Light, thin body. Flavor is more coffee, chocolate, cola, and light campfire smoke. Low sweetness. Low boost. Not much of a market for low boost, mediocre flavor beers in this world.
