Historical Community Tasting Notes

Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000โ€“2018)

Golden yellow in color. I am confused though, the last poster said serve very cold as to prevent getting to much taste, I say what taste? I was not impressed by this beer, unfortunately. It reminded me of a slightly better cheap American light beer.
Deep yellow color - too much like urine. Somewhat like a heavy miller or pabst. Not much maltiness or hops. Slight soapy metalic nip on the sides of your tongue. Serve very cold so as to prevent getting too much of the taste and its not bad.
Looks like pee! but its not...i think!?! Smells a bit like flinstone vitamins. I agree with cewldre...not impressed with the taste. Try Flying Dogs Scottish Porter if you want some flavor from them.
