Aug 14, 2009 Had at a random bar near the hotel at my brother’s wedding in Indianapolis. Not too bad, but nothing special.

Aug 9, 2009 Found this one bottled at a liquor store in St. John, Indiana, as part of a mixed 12 pack of various beers from the state. Hazy, medium brown pour with a thick, tan head, a nice malty nose, chocolatey and a bit of baked bread enhance this nice, malty ale. An impressive brew in a so-so style.

Jul 13, 2009 Six pack from Kahn’s, Indianapolis. I only bought it because my wifes name is Helene. Turned out though to be not that bad. Nice malty backbone that reminded my of Newcastle Brown. A bit rough about the edges, but a drinkable beer.

Jul 6, 2009 Hazy brown pour with one finger of tan head. Rich malty aroma with a hint of hops. Malty roasted grain flavors with hints of chocolate and coffee – just hints - dominate the start, with a decent, although one dimensional, hops bite coming through in the finish. A thoroughly respectable ale.

Jul 5, 2009 Pours brown with a small off white head. Aroma is faint but of dark fruits and light malts. Flavor is slightly roasty, slightly hazelnut and a slight sour bitterness which may have something to do with the age of the bottle. Not bad but not great.

Jun 24, 2009 Nasty aftertaste. Pours a deep amber with a slightly yellow head. Nothing i’d every buy again.

Jun 8, 2009 12 oz bottle. Pours a rusty brown color with an average beige head. Smells of sweet malt, tea, and brown sugar. Tastes of bread crust, grains, sugar, and tea. Aftertaste is slightly sweet, and dry. Very little hop presence. Not too bad.
