Historical Community Tasting Notes

Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000–2018)

This is actually a really good brew. Although I did not find the malty sweetness in the flavor as depicted. The bottle has it labled as a malt liquor,but it is far from it. Good flavor somewhat chewy texture. I really enjoyed this one.
Very light yellow body, small white creamy head. Earthy, grassy aroma with sweet malt. Unfortunately it tastes slightly skunked (thank you green bottle!), but still pretty good with a grassy hop flavor and lively carbonation.
better then i expected, had a nice thin white head and a mundane yellow color. It had a really smooth hoppy taste that was more floral than bitter, it finsihed really smooth. The taste seamed mild overall, but good.
