Batch 19




Now this may be my favorite recent American experiment from one of the soddin big beer companies. It is a light amber beer produced by Coors, makers of many such fine abominations as the Silver Bullet and its namesake flagship swill, which comes from a Pre-Prohibition beer recipe they found cleaning up one day. Whoever found this little gem of a beer deserves a medal, and whoever misplaced it needs to be dug up and given a though pistol whip that can be felt in the afterlife. It sports a respectable 5.5 percent alcohol per volume punch, and is quickly spreading across the nation, becoming a favorite of beer drinkers far and wide. That includes this soddin son of bitch writing this.

It has a large long brown bottle with an add bit of glass work down near the spout that makes the thing stand out. It also has a wide label with its name printed in large aged stencil like letters that are white on a black back ground. This catches the eye and make folks want to look at it closer, I know for my crew this was the case. The big heavy and high walled six packs also stand out and draw someone to them.

The beer has a great taste, and as catchy as the packaging is, it is the real star. It has a strong rich flavor and is a damn good example of what a pale amber beer should be. It is comparable to Abita’s Amber, or more accurately Budweiser’s American Ale. This beer I recommend above all others for first time drinkers out there. It is heavier than some, but is still lighter than most of what I and mine put away.
