Solid, not great. Its cheap, better than Budweiser and has over twice as much alcohol.







First sip tasted a little stout-ish, but it quickly mellowed out. Too malty for me, wish it was hoppier.



Well balanced, with an initial spiciness up front, but it doesn't stay long. No significant finish. Not as bitter as I was expecting, which makes it a great alternative to an IPA but stick with a big beer.



At a certain ABV, ales that are playing it safe are destined to succeed to some extent. The drawback is that you cannot achieve greatness without taking risk. This ale plays it safe with its sweet boozy flavor and slightly grainy finish. It doesn't pack a lot of flavor, but it relatively inexpensive, drinkable, and good for getting boozed up.





Finally a well balanced American micro-brew. Bold taste, but not too heavy. Good aroma but not too hoppy. Watch out, a bit of spice and bitter, but the other quantities make up for that.
