Commercial Description:
Brewed with floor-malted Maris Otter barley from England and six other specialty grains, this beer has notes of toffee, caramel and toasted biscuits. We also took some of the barley and toasted it in our ovens to bring out a nutty character.

We are introducing this beer on Friday the 13th in honor of one of the greatest cinematic achievements of all time Friday the 13th- chronicling the adventures of Camp Crystal Lake. We have named it after the brilliant performance of the character Crazy Ralph played by the late Walt Gorney - one of the nuttiest characters in film history.

Tap at 5 North. Poured a very hazy brown color with a small creamy tan head. Roasty and nutty aroma with light coffee notes and a hint of tea. The flavor was roasty with a hint of coffee. Some milk chocolate as well. Light carbonation and light mouthfeel. Light-medium bodied.

very creamy body, flavor comes through a lot lighter until it warms, the nutty character came out a lot stronger on cask but is still a nice presence on draft

On tap at the brewpub in Alpharetta. Dark amber pour, fluffy, thick off-white head. Strong chocolately/coffee aroma with hints of berries - had to ask the barkeep if he poured me the stout instead! Flavor has prominent chocolate notes, some coffee and a sweet fruity back end with a nutty finish. Thick enough mouthfeel. Solid brewpub brown

Appearance: Deep, dark brown body with a light beige head. Smell: Light, sweet-smelling over-toasted nuts. Taste: Rich maltiness, with more of those toasted nuts. Some chocolate flavors develop as it warms. A gentle roasted bitterness in the finish. Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Very soft carbonation. Drinkability: Quite! I clearly recall it made for very easy early-Sunday drinking.
