12 oz bottle. Pours clear copper with a medium off-white head with decent retention. Aroma is doughy bread, toasted marshmallow, caramel, mild fruit. Taste is malty sweet (not cloying) with a little bitterness. Carbonation is average, a little watery, light body. Boring and exactly what I was expecting.
Nothing to recommend here. Not a drain-pour, but just so average that it does not make sense to waste your time drinking it.
This beer poured surprisingly creamy. The flavor was a bit malty and creamy but really not much to it. Better than I anticipated though.
Clear amber color with fleeting ivory sheen. Dry caramel, peppery, salty aromas. medium body with average carbonation. toast, dry caramel, salt, pepper flavors
Bottle from Kroger. Amber pour with a small beige head. Aroma is nutty and a little roast. Taste is burned caramel, grass, and cardboard.
Bottle. The look is very clear, thin off white head, and reddish in color. The taste is cardboard, malt, mushy, and hops. The smell is leaf, straw, malt, and hops c
Amber in color with a small off-white head. Aroma is of leaves, sawdust, dirt, foliage. Taste is the same.
Bottle at Chelsea piers bowling. Pours clean amber. Nose is mostly nothing but I guess some malt and certainly not bad. Tastes of malt, caramel, and toast with light hop bitterness. Pretty bland.
Bottle from Capone’s. Pours clear dark copper toward brown with a finger of tan head. Nose is caramel malt, brown sugary, with notes of toffee and spice. Tastes caramel malty, a bit like Yuengling, with a lot of malt, mild hops, and mile toffee.
The in between beer... Great amber color , but bad hoppy finish. Not for me ... Drinkable but not my first choice.
12oz bottle in a lager glass. Pours amber with an off-white head. Aroma of light malts, a little caramel and light floral hops. Flavor pretty bland and light on everything. Average to light texture. Not the best beer, but not awful.
12oz Bottle. The pour was a clear light copper orange with an average (1-2 finger) white foamy head that reduced to a thin cap with fair spotty lacing.
The aroma was extremely mild of a light grain malt, grassy hops and an earthy yeast with a light note of caramel and maybe an adjunct.
The taste was lightly malty sweet with a faint hint of caramel at first, becoming mildly bitter and a tad hoppy towards the end. The flavor was short lived with just a light bitterness left behind.
Mouthfeel was light in body with a watery, dry texture and a medium carbonation.
Overall this was an ultra light tasting brew in every aspect. It reminds me of the light beers on the market today, but with just a little more flavor... www.facebook.com/KAJIIsBeerReviews
Bottled. Amber red pour. Some light caramel. Light hops. Some fruits. Pretty unmemorable but not awful.
Bottle. Nose lightly dusty and rich in dough malt with sticky hints at berry and higher alcohol. Like that caramel vibe, has some nice hops. Pours a gradient amber with a rocky, dense eggshell head. Taste has fresh hops, thick caramel and nice woodsy feel, but there’s a mildly grainy curtness about it (Sammy has something similar) and some unfortunate streaks of paper. Still, faint dough and earth/choco are nice, and for its flaws this is still nice to drink. Medium-fullish body, not flat but best described as ’smooth’.
Nice hop aroma, some caramel sweetness. Balanced pretty nicely. I always find ambers to be pretty boring but thought this one was fairly well done with some variation. Fairly light bodied but nice light malt and hop addition. Beer became lest interesting as the beer progressed.
Pours clear amber into a shaker. White head quickly recedes to hug rim. Mild bread and sour caramel aromas. Soft with sour bread and nuts. Lasting nasty finish.
My second Weinhard in a row, my second drain pour in a row. I can’t believe this crap comes out of Full Sail’s brewery! It has a strong medicinal and oil feel and taste. Bad. Stay away.
Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured an orange-caramel color with a huge soapy orange-white head that lingered and left good lacing.The aroma was sweet and tangy toasted caramel and dark fruits. The flavor was sweet, tangy and malty with notes of caramel, dark fruits and honey. Medium length tangy dark fruit and caramel finish. Moderately full bodied. Solid.
Bottle pours a clear amber with a thin white head. Scent is caramel and herbal. Taste is is caramel, herbs and earthy.
Ports clear amber brown with med tan head. Malt body nice balance. Like better yuengling.
Bottle. Pours an amber color with white head. Nice caramel aroma with notes of earthiness and grassy hops, but predominantly caramel. Caramel and bread flavors with some small hints of hops. This beer is pretty basic - caramel malts. Not as bad as the Woodlands Pass IPA, but not that great either.
Amber with white head.aroma is sweet and old hops. Taste is not appealing. Sweet and a little bitter. Musty...
Almost the same beer as their IPA. Same caramel aroma with just a hint grass. The flavor has the caramel and a bit of hops to balance. Nice lively carbonation helps but a little thin in the end.
Serving: 12 oz. bottle from Wegmans Leesburg. It pours a light copper color with a small white head. The nose has some serious off notes. All I get is cooked broccoli. The flavor follows suit with lots of over cooked cabbage and light cracker notes. The finish is terrible. This one is a total drain pour.
Aroma is sweetish malts and toffee. The flavor is biscuit/bread-like malts, toffee, notes of fruit and a mild/medium sweet/smooth finish
Slight rotten milk on the nose. Sweet malt flavor and almost no hop bitterness.
Bottle. Light caramel malt aroma. Clear copper with a small off-white head. Caramel malt and light bitter hop flavor. Light dry body.
Poured a nice amber/red color with a very nice lofty head. The appearance was actually the highlight of this thing. Aroma was of malts and floral hops. The taste was similar with malts predominating upfront and the moderate hop bitterness finishing things off. Palate was decent. Overall, not a bad amber made by the macro-folks at Miller.
Only had 2 oz worth at world beer festival January 2013 Columbia,SC... MAY NOT BE CORRECT BEER... wrote down blitz-weinhardt amber blend but couldn’t find....
Clear copper amber. Nose is grainy with a subtle sweet caramel note, and herbal hop character. Medium body with a moderate bitterness balanced by more subtle sweet honey malt and bread. The finsh is grainy and herbal. This is an easy ale to drink with food or drink several in a social setting. Not bad.
