Commercial Description:
Deep red amber colored, full-bodied, with a residual malt sweetness and hoppy flavor. This is an all-around Brew Works favorite. A great Yeungling “Lager” alternative. This british style ale contains a special blend of Cluster, Fuggle, and East Kent Golding hops.

One of their best done beers, this one had a beautiful red/brown color and a taste that was pretty full. I was exepecting more hops, but found the malty taste to be pretty prominent. They called it a Yuengling comparable, but this one was more complex and slightly heavier. A nice choice.

Hoppy aroma, a combination of British hops to add a layer of complexity. Creamy and bitter to the end. A good palate cleaner that’s all, and begs for food accompanment. Medium mouthfeel.

Pours a reddish amber with an average off white lacing head. Aroma was sweet and malty, a bit on the light side. Flavor had a light bitterness at the end but still pretty malty.

Best beer by BBW but that does not say much. The gear is cool. The hoppy flavor was very ho hum and I found this beer out of whack. No balance of malt and hops. If they tried to make this a Yeungling alternative I can see why they failed... aim higher.

on tap-pours a thin, creamy white head that laces. Copper color. Aroma is nill. Taste is malt with a bite. Mild carbonation.

This beer had a malty tone to it and the finish was much more in tune to ESBs I’ve had in England as far as creaminess goes. But, I’m not too fond of the end product-I wish it was more flowery and packed in more of a punch. This one seems like a corp-beer alternative.

Another draught. Aroma of sweet malts. Arrived amber with creamy head. Flavor was more of the same, light sweet malts and light hops, could’ve used more. Palate was full and creamy. Overall ok there just was something I didn’t quite like.

On draught at the Bethlehem Brew Works. Served in a 5.5 oz. sample glass. Deep amber hue. Very smooth character, good balance between the malts and hops. The bitterness in the finish was quite soothing and paired well with the sweetness in the malts.
