Aug 5, 2008 Pours a nice amber red into a shaker. Off-white head with excellent retention leaves spot lacing as it recedes to layer surface. Caramel malt aromas. Smooth caramel upfront which transforms to a slightly sour chalk finish.

Jul 5, 2008 Slight caramel aroma, not much else. Deep copper color with little carbonation and tan head. Enjoyable balanced taste at first, then a weird chalky taste, then finishes nicely bitter. Not a whole lot memorable that’s good.

Jun 25, 2008 Bottle. Diactyl bomb! The diactyl is so strong in the aroma it was really tough to choke it down. Flavor is malty with diactyl again being dominant.

Jun 21, 2008 Bottle from shipyard brewery. Deep red color with hoppy flavor. Cream color head. Not a well rounded beer in my opinion. Go for the old thumper.

Jun 7, 2008 bit of a sweet grainy malt aroma, has a good grainy malt flavor, virtually no aftertaste, pretty smooth brew, not too bad.
