Old Review
12 oz bottle I got in a sixer from Grub Mart in J'ville. $8.99 a sixer. Poured into a shaker pint.
A: This brea has a really nice brown/amber color to it. When held to the light, it is a perfect example of amber. The head is slightly off white and I got about 2 fingers on the pour. Retention is poor. Lacing is minimal. Not bad to look at.
S: Smell is mostly malt. Very sweet malt with some caramel hints. There is also a herbal tinge to the brew. I can't quite place it, but the herb is on the back end of the nose.
T: This brew is pretty sweet. The malt is very there, not very roasted. Just sweet malt. Caramel is there also to add to the sweetness. There is a breadiness to this brew that tries to counter balance the sweetness. Once again, an herbal/medicinal flavor comes in the back side of the flavor profile.
M: This is a light bodied brew that goes down pretty easily. Crisp and clean. Very little aftertaste, and that which is there is a malty aftertaste. This could be thicker. Don't get me wrong, it is closer to medium than a normal light bodied brew.
D: This beer is very drinkable because of its body. It is sweet, but not sickeningly sweet. Still tasty and nice on a cooler night. Not a great beer, but not bad.
