Musty fruitiness, wavering grain-hopped bitterness, and dull barley sweetness unevenly meshed. Berry tones and distant chocolate soda fizz remain faint, but damned if this doesn’t conjure thoughts of being cheaper superficial alternative to Molson Export.

Obliging malted chocolate nose and toasted almond tease reinforce wheat-cracked pale oats sweetness for lithe opening. Roasted barley backdrop underlines tobacco-leafed lemon-spiced orange pith midst and unripe apricot quip, concealing mild acidity and corruptive oxidation.

Smoothly festive traditional German amber retains caramelized pleasantry, cereal grain sweetness, and toasted barley backbone. Butterscotch midst digs into juicy orange-tangerine-grapefruit cusp for sugary surge advancing woozy alcohol burn.

Virtuous red lager brings caramel malt swell to toasted hop nicety, orange blossom waft, and candied sugar zap. Minor creaminess pads berry-cherry tingle.

Bubbly-headed amber gains moderate hop bitterness, sweet toasted barley undercurrent, sour Vienna malt obstruction, and caramel nuttiness to murky citrus finish. A tad creamier than fruit-dried pale ales yet limited in overall appeal.

Immediate ripe banana sweetness welcomes silken wheat overlay. Floral clove-mint accents, mild grapefruit zest, and slim banana bubblegum illusions benefit further from strategic wood-burnt emphasis. Reminiscent of mildly acidic butterscotch-licked German weisse.

Sturdy pale lager receives sweet crystal malt efficacy and bubbly hop effervescence, allowing it to go down easy. But lack of continued grain persistence knocks it down a notch.

Not a typical Canadian brew due to its roasted chocolate overtones and assertive malt richness. Sweet yeast essence maintains well-balanced nature.

Containing fair amount of depth for lager but closer to West Coast microbrew than ‘German-style’ indication suggests. Hearty barley-toned center increases penetrating hop bitterness to grainy finish.

Hideous dry-bodied straw-hued white-headed lager with wavering orange-peeled lemon rind bitterness, spicy hop astringency, and evaporative malt sweetness gains harsh chemical acidity plus dank soapiness.

Totally defunct beer from small Indiana brewery. My friend Phil bought this while visiting home state of Jersey circa 2002. Sweet caramel malt essence embeds soft yeast tenacity enhancing moderately spiced grain-dominant Midwest microbrew. Perfect for simple blue collar types or white collar slummin.’
