Years ago this was a regular beer for me. I have not had one for about 6 years now and decided to try one again now that my beer palate has expanded. Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a dark brown color with red highlights and only a trace of a tan head. The aroma is faint roasted malt. The flavor is powerful with roasted malt and has moderate chocolate and brown sugar elements. I had forgotten how much I like this one, but it is no longer a favorite.

2004 bottle. Surprisingly bright, copper-gold body, but the small white head is wholly diminishing. Smells of model glue, corn syrup, pale malt, that’s about it. Taste of glue, gelatin, dms. Very paste-like body, fuzzy and strange. Light body, very watery, many problems in this one. Poured it out quickly.

Bottle. Appearance is light yellow, small head. Smells like sewer water and corn. Taste is quite similar, with more raw sewage than anything else. A great beer, if you like drinking things that aren’t meant to be consumed.

A red-brown beer with a small disappearing orange head. The aroma is sweet with notes of caramel and brown sugar. The flavor is sweet with notes of metal and caramel, while the body is thin.

Bottled, thanks SpringsLicker! Nut brown. Brutal aroma of sheer butyric acid. Something has gone very wrong here. It’s hard to say if the fault derives from the brewing process or if it was left in a boiling hot container while being shipped overseas. However with brewers that don’t stamp a bottling date I have no mercy, and add my rating anyway.

Very average beer all around. I was not impressed nor sickened by this brew. Deeper brownish... not much of a head. Malty aroma. Flavor is lacking- kinda malty, but nothing in there, really.

2004 bottle. Fiery red tinges color this dark brownish-red ale. Small off-white head, lightly fizzy. Ample aroma of light roast, caramel, chocolate and some sweet brown sugar. Flavor is more of the same, light sweet roast, a bit of sugariness that seems a tad artificial, but not too much so. Flavor is full, at least, while not horribly complex. Still, for a largely produced lager, this stuff is great. Body is medium with an almost creamy consistency. This could get boring and sweet in large doses though.

Nothing special here. Starts with a good malt aroma with just a touch of hops. Slightly bitter flavor. Largely unremarkable beer.
