Dark chestnut. No head. The aroma is nutty with a hint of chocolate. Thinnish body with a very nutty character. A largely one-dimensional brew.

Cloudy dull tan. Not getting much nose. Sweet and alcoholic, with a slight banana and some vaguely raisiny tartness. Good balance, even if most of the positive characteristics are underdeveloped. Really lacks style, just kind of thuds on the palate.

Hazy straw. No head. The aroma is mostly footy - no this is not an appropriate weizen characteristic no matter how many American brewers have this stank pedio yeast thing going on. Light banana, too. Sweetish, but turning thin and a little bit tart - time to pull the plug on this one. Vague banana at best.

Slightly hazy. Light amber. Mostly mushroomy/toasty aroma. Mushroomy character, overly toasty palate and mild bitterness. Boring stuff.

Straw. Big bubbles. Doesn’t look good. Slightly grainy aroma with mild continental hop. Mild bitterness. Herbal hops are also a bit cheesy. Typical bland blonde ale.

Hazy straw. Smells wonky. Taste is bland, slightly fruity. Thin body. Dirty elements and lack of body make this a poor wheat.

Draft. Deep brown body with a tan head rapidly diminishing. Roasty aroma with notes of chocolate, lactose and chocolate. The flavor is moderately to heavily sweet and lightly to moderately bitter. It finishes lightly to moderately sweet and moderately bitter. Medium body, velvety texture, moderate, but adequate, carbonation. Starts overly sweet, but bitterness from roast and hops cut it. Somewhat dry in the finish. Best of the lineup at Blue Corn.
