      Golden, low carbonation, thick head. Earthy, perfumey aroma with a skunky odor. Light body, clean maltiness, mildly skunked. It's listed at 52 IBU...where have they hidden all the hops?

      Very nice amber, moderate carbonation, OK head. Smells like whisky! Tastes like whisky, too. Even shrivels my tongue up. Pretty smoky. "Naturally brewed with organically grown barley and hops."

      Red opaque, nice tan head. Hoppy alcoholic aroma. Big and malty, bitter, and full of alcohol. Long bitter finish.
