Note: I am in the process of moving all of my ratings from other beer sites to here, so that all of my ratings are consolidated in one place. The review below is an exact copy of my original RateBeer review from 10/20/2012.
12 oz. bottle. Pours a slightly cloudy, dark brown with little to no head. Aroma is faintly of wet dog. Taste is astringent, bitter, and with a undertones of sweetness. Medium body with average carbonation.
This isn’t a great beer, but I don’t mind having one from time to time.

Deep garnet appearance with a tiny beige head and no appreciable lacing. Toasted malt aroma with a hint of toffee. Very simple flavors with a cardboard-like taste. Pretty much lacking a substantial hop footing. Sweetish finish lasted longer than it should have. Needs more body.

This stuff I think is underrated. Really smooth and flavorful lager. None of the nasty smell/flavor of regular Becks, I actually just realized it's a separate style altogether, one that I typically enjoy. That makes sense. I'd happily drink this if available out to dinner or some such occasion.

A decent dark beer, one that rests solidly on the average part of the scale. 2010/07/17
