Aug 5, 2009 [Bottle] Pours a clear brown color with a good looking amount of beige head. Aroma of dark malts and light amounts of alcohol. The taste is heavy on the sweet roasted malts. Some sweet caramel is in this, but there’s not much underlying complexity at all. It’s a mediocre beer that could be better with quality ingredients.

Jul 20, 2009 I was a little put off by the aroma from the bottle. Seemed very "beer-y" like Bud or Coors. Poured a little into a cup...light malty head, dark dark color. I got some malt...way more hops than the malt...a little bit of spice. Sour finish. I’d rather have an Aventinus.

Apr 4, 2009 Dark red with a small light brown head. Aroma is slightly roasted with prunes and cherry. Pretty full bodied roasted flavor, tart cherries stand out, a touch of chocolate, maybe some plum. Nice creamy mouthfeel with a fruity sour bitter finish. Good solid winter beer.

Mar 28, 2009 Pours a dark brown color, a tan head. Smells of malt and grains.
Taste is very malty/ mixed with grains. The grains seem to overpower the malt. Overall it is a good beer very dark and rich.

Mar 17, 2009 12-ounce bottle in Albuquerque. Pours a clear mahogany with a light white head and lace. Light malty aroma. Big body and rich, full, creamy mouthfeel. Nice clean malty flavors. Even dry/sweet malty flavor balance with a clean finish. Very subtle hop flavor and underlying bitterness. Great flavor profile. Late non-complex sweetness but doesn’t distract too much overall.

Feb 25, 2009 Draft. Included as part of a sampler at the brewpub in Vegas. I remembered liking pretty much everything but do not remember specifics. Definitely surprised by the high quality from what is essentially a chain restaurant.
