      Overall Impression (3½)
      Red-amber. Big bubbles in the head. Fruity hops and caramel malt aroma. Could be much more assertive. Very nice indeed. All of the right flavors are there, none are assertive enough, and yet it's a very good beer.

      Amber. Hazy. Great head. Not much aroma. Thin. Sweet. Not impressed.

      Beautiful beer. Textbook color and head. Skunk aroma...faint but noticeable. OK body. Quite bitter, and flowery.

      Reddish-brown. Flat. Brown sugar nose. Very sweet caramel. Bitter. Fizzy. Tastes brown, but something's missing. Ordinary.

      Same color as Brown (3-0166), but cloudy. Great thick head. More assertive aroma than Brown. Chewy. Flat, not fizzy like Brown.

      Yellow, sparse bubbles, thin head. Malt aroma faint, no hops. Good body. Fairly bitter finish. Good hot weather beer, maybe.
