Feb 21, 2008 Bottle from miketd. Golden amber and tawny brown colored body, near perfect clarity. Wonderfully rich nose of dry nutty wood, crisp caramel malt and fruity, dried leaves. Vinuous, held togethor well but not thick; fresh and delicious light sweetness that turns moderately dry, bready and nutty (chestnuts) in the finish. Really good stuff.

Feb 18, 2008 Had this one on draught at Bennigan’s in St. Charles, Illinois. Nice, dark amber pour with a medium, fluffy white head. Medium mouthfeel. Nose of light, citrusy hops and bready malts. Some milk chocolate balanced with piney hops flavor. Balanced, clean finish. Very nice.

Feb 18, 2008 12 oz. bottle. A beautiful ruby red with a healthy white head. Malty aroma with some biscuit character. Flavor has some caramel and toasted malt. Has a crisp lager finish that is slightly sweet. Well made for the style, not too exciting, but well balanced, clean and easy to enjoy.

Feb 18, 2008 This bottle was from a variety pack. A pretty decent variety pack with 3 bottles each of this, Burning River Pale Ale and the Edmond Fitzgerald Porter. I haven’t tried the other yet. It poured a dark copper/amber color with a 1" thick creamy head. Nice lacing throughout the glass. The aroma was mild of malt and sweetness of caramel. The flavor hit with a nice crisp taste with a nice bite and a nice combination of a caramel sweetness to give a mellow taste. A very nice drinking beer!!!

Feb 17, 2008 Updated: Feb 18, 2008Looks beautiful in a glass, a nice deep red. It’s hard not to want to put the glass on the windowsill as a permanent fixture to your home; but doing so would be denying yourself the pleasure of tasting this brilliant brew. The aroma is intoxicating; and the flavor is rich and full of malty goodness. Goes down easy.

Feb 16, 2008 This beer poured from the bottle a really nice deep red Honey color. The initial aroma was only faint and more of hops. There was a hint of redcabbage and saurkraut when poured. The head was modest but nice lace. The taste was veryy well balanced with just a good level of sweetness followed by mild bitter hops. tirstquenching for sure

Feb 13, 2008 The color was medium copper. The head was thick, frothy, off-white, and laced the glass. The aroma was some spice, sweet, caramel malt, and pumpkin. The flavor was coppery, somewhat hoppy, sweet, and caramel malt. The palate was thin and barely carbonated. The finish was clean
