This time I cut it with Yeungling Lager- better. Took a few swigs and went and added more Yeungling - betterer. (Beauty of having a mulitude of taps available self serve.) While doing this improved the taste, I'm still getting an oily coating on my tongue. For that, I bumped the rating up only slightly.

I really like Elliot Ness Lager so I had high expectations for this. Alas, too much apple pie and not enough lager.
