Bronze color, light sticky head. The aroma is lightly hopped with spices and malty sweetness. The flavor is balanced with a good malt back bone. Finishes sweet with lots of spices. Not bad.

Copper color with a smallish off white head. Dry earthy toasted malt aromas with some lightly spicy hops in the background. Mild sweet start with toffee and caramel. Mildly acidic finish. Slighlt better tan average amber.

Hey, the 10th rating!! What do I win?? Light colored brown with a small, beige head. Aroma has a little sweetness. Taste has a little caramel and hops character. Some grass and malty sweetness at the end. Alright for an everyday beer, but not special.

Started a beautiful cauldron or rusty orange, fomenting into a solid overcast of head. Interesting aroma, almost pepperoni-like. Quite metallic tone on the palate (is the anvil IN the beer?), a sweet and sour hop-malt balance and a spicy little finish. Pretty good ...
