Dark with a creamy head. Malty, sweet, and not much else in either the aroma of flavor. Smooth and really easy to drink, though. Not bad at all, but it’s just there.

Light herbal hops, malty, and a touch of roasted notes lead this boring brew. Easy to drink all night long, though.

Virginia Beer Festival. Dark golden color with a thickish head. Aroma was almost non-existant. Not bad, but nothing at all to call home about.

Va BF 07 Draft: No aroma. Moderatelky dark golden color. Medium bubbly head, no lacing. Weak metallic flavor with some hops.. No finish. Disappointing.

Courtesy of a Porter swilling third party. Thanks man. Poured a very deep clear amber color with weak light brown head. Sweet aroma of sugar candy, sweet sugary malts and hints of molasses. Tastes a little blander than it smells with hints of roasted malts, caramelized malts, sugar (table sugar), molasses and hints of dates and raisins.

Fruit in the aroma. Some hop bitterness. Very smooth, reminded me of a brown ale.

Draft, at Comiskey Park, that's right, on tap at Comiskey Park. A great find among the too many taps of Miller Gangster Disciples and Lite. Has a nice fruity hop nose on a decently amber body. A sweet caramel malt taste with a banana flavor (or is that phenol?). Balanced with milder northern hops. A good beer to enjoy, even in a plastic cup, while watching the Sox "Mess with Texas" to the tune of 7-1! And on Elvis Night, to boot!

Dark amber colour not very opaque, but for this style it looks acceptable. The head is very large-bubbled slight tan coloured and fades quickly. The smell is of a typical lager and slightly sweet (as more of a macro-brew smell). The taste is medium-bodied but completely absent in flavour. You get a mouthful to deal with, but absolutlely no taste. This was a new addition to my local beer store, and I had to pick up, just because it was new, and i've had just about everything else, but I will not try any other beers from this Brewery just based on this beer. Needless to say, I look up, and see Pabst....what a shocker! This one isn't good, try another black and tan, or MAKE YOUR OWN!

great beer for the price. Piney and grassy flavors with a medium-light body. Not even too carbonated. Very run of the mill.
