This was a really good beer.
It reminded me a lot of Dead Guy Ale. This had a decent look to it with a somewhat decent head. The flavor was very bready or yeasty. A nice hop spice ended it.
The mouthfeel was nice and smooth. Not velvet but smooth.
A very drinkable brew. A good session beer.

Unique name... not so unique of a brew. Light yellowish brown color with hint's of sediment causing a cloudiness. Short lived white head quickly dissipated. Slightly floral aroma with hints of roasted nuts. Flavors of hops, grain and corn were most present. Smooth and even mouth feel, but far from exceptional. Not much of an aftertaste to speak of. Not a bad beer, but nothing to write home about. Worth a try.

Closer to an Altbier than a Vienna (ale?) lager. Slightly hazy light caramel in color with moderate carbonation forming a thin white head. Mild retention and no lacing. Aroma begins with nutty malts, a subtle fruitiness, a hint of corn, toast and herbal hops. Mouthfeel is the nicest of the bunch..smooth with a medium-light body. Taste begins toasty and nutty with a hint of lingering sweetness and lightly grainy in the finish. Hops are mild. The corn is off-putting in the aftertaste.
