Crescent City Black Forest

I sampled this beer on tap at the brewpub in New Orleans. The beer had a dark brown color with an amber hue and a moderate, creamy off-white head that had modest retention and cling. The beer had some grainy and grassy hops aroma with a bit of caramel malt too. A somewhat bitter hoppy beer with mild sweetness too. It was a bit watery and thinner with lower carbonation and a dry finish.

Flavor is sweet and malty with notes of sour wheat, grass, yeast, and hints of caramel and honey. Generally light to medium body with a sour malty finish. Not really that good.

Draft at Brewery. Dark brown beer with a small tan head. Full aroma of roasted malt and coffee. Same in the flavor with some hops also.
