Jun 13, 2007 On tap at Old Glory in Georgetown. Not too impressed with this one, it had some nice caramel notes in the thinly malty body and a light aroma of hops with slight bitterness at the finish. Palate was watery - my main complaint. Drink this with food, it won’t get in the way.

Jan 23, 2007 This beer was horribly off when I had it at the brewpub on 01-20-07. At least I hope it was off. Several of the beers there that day had a rank flavor that tasted of very dirty beer lines. This was the worst

Faint aroma. Thin head. Very weak flavor. Disappointing.

Jun 5, 2006 This one poured with the usual amber color of its style, but with absolutely NO head (they had just swapped the keg too) and no lacing. The smell was a little musty and malty, maybe some nuts in there. Hops were noticeably absent in the aroma and even flavor (was this really intended to be an amber?). Flavor was of strong malts. Very drinkable and smooth mouthfeel (low carbonation), a decent session beer, but a complete miss within style.

Mar 1, 2006 Draught at Old Dominion Brewpub 3/1/2006: Coppery amber body with a small eggshell-colored head that sticks. Body is clear showing medium-sized bubbles. The aroma is mild overall, but does show some mild hops, a bit of caramel & toasty malt, along with a touch of grains. The taste is mild toasted caramel malt that almost feels dry in the mouth, a hint of floral hops, and a touch of butterscotch that is barely noticable. Light-medium body, medium carbonation, finishes clean and crisp and also nicely dry.

Aug 11, 2005 On tap at Old Glory, M st., D.C. Had upstairs and outside on the deck. Cool setting. Crisp, clean, a fresh finish, fair to perhaps slightly above average in most categories. With the great description, great hops & malts should come off a bit better.

Jan 31, 2005 Pours a medium copper body with a frothy tan head. Some light citrus and hop bitterness on the nose. Flavor starts with a nice hop bite mellowed out by a smooth malty finish. Good beer.
