courtesy of screamforme. pour a deep red-copper with beige head. Aroma of nice floral hops / blossom and a fruity aroma that reminded me of raspberries without the tart. Taste is light, malty and hoppy, light touch of caramel. Yeast comes forward with faint touch of nuts. Finish is light, crisp, some bitterness and caramel. Good beer, sessionable.

Has a nice clear red-brown color, and a small head that dissipates quickly. Nice sweet caramel aroma with a little bit of fruit as well. Flavor is a bit lacking. Tastes like malt, sugar and carbonated water. Mouthfeel is average, light bodied, and fizzy. Overall, this is drinkable, but not very exciting.

APPEARANCE: Pours an amber brown color with a large tan head that dissipates at an average rate. Moderate lacing. AROMA: Caramel and toasted malt. Hint of cocoa. FLAVOR: Toasted malt and brown sugar. Finishes with a bit of earthy hops. MOUTHFEEL: Light to medium body beer. Soft carbonation. DRINKABILITY: A very easy drinking smooth beer. A would like a bit more flavor. It is also a bit disjointed for me. The sweet malts and bitterness don’t meld together well. NOTES: BBCSD-0902-Carl

Deep copper pour with tan head and lace. Caramel malt and earthy hops on the aroma. Light caramel and yeasty sourness, light semi sweet malt with a medium bitter followed by a hint of butter. Foamy medium bodied beer. Not special but easily drinkable.

12 oz Bottle. Pours a strange red hued brown with a good beige head. Nose is caramelly malts. Flavors are very watered down. Some caramel malt is about all to speak of. Just a simple brown ale here.

Local bottle. Really just boring overall. Nice looking beer but the flavour was very thin, just some roasted malt. Not bad, just nothing exciting.
