look: 2 | smell: 2 | taste: 2.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 1.5

tasted blind with other "winter warmers" 2009 vintage.

pours an orangish hue with a quickly fading head.

aroma is quite non existant. slight fruity esters, but nothing distinct.

flavor is much like the aroma. not much going on.

well rounded body. decent for style.

this beer is boring. it needs a lot of color and character.

This beer seems like it came from an alternate universe... a universe in whichthe Macrobreweries decided to brew ale instead of lager. That's the best way to describe this beer. Coors Ale is to real ale as Coors lager is to real lager. You can tell that this is an ale, but there's something about it that's just off. It has a metallic taste, and the ale bitterness seems fake. Try this beer if you've ever wondered what the macros would be like if they were ales.

Appearance: Hard pour into a pilsner glass reveals a ruby-red brew topped by a light brown head with some degree of staying power. Minimal carbonation or lacing, but not too bad.

Aroma: Smells like a Coors - that sharp aroma of hops and adjunct. Some amount of malt but it's faint.

Taste: Watery hops, faint bits of malt. No spice like I expected from a winter ale. This is essentially coors with red food coloring in it.

Mouthfeel: Thin and as vaporous as the taste.

Drinkability: This might be better straight from the bottle and ice-cold.
