Commercial Description:
Deep Amber red color, with a fragrant malt aroma. Flavorful notes of rich caramelized malt and noble hop flavors harmonize on the palate leading to a crisp clean finish. Named after one of Cleveland's most respected safety directors, who frequented the brewpub's bar during his tenure from 1935-1941 and, according to popular legend, was responsible for the bullet holes still evident today.

Pours a dark amber color with a thin white head. Aroma is malty and fruity. Flavor is similar to the aroma with a slightly hoppy finish. A good, smooth brew

On Tap @ Great Lakes Brewhouse

Poured dark amber, with a white head. Nice lacing on the glass. Aroma sweet, malty, and fruity. Flavor had a mild sweetness and a mild bitterness that mixed well. Caramel notes also present, nice complex brew, flavors really mixed well. Very smooth and easy to drink. I’ve never had a vienna before.

pours an amber color with a medium white head. the aroma is light with some fruits, malts, and hops. Tastes similar to the aroma with some bitterness from the hops, but not too much. A good brew.

Very good beer. Paired this with a medium rare flatiron steak at the brewpub and was an excellent match.

This is a smooth beer. Has a funny sour and caramel character. Not bad for a lager...and never had a vienna before.

Didn’t like this as much as their other lager on tap, but it was pretty good. It does have a very smooth drinkability, and fantastic colour and aroma.

This bottled brew poured a large sized head of foamy fine to medium sized mostly lasting light brown colored bubbles that left behind an unnoted lacing. The body contained average carbonation, was unnoted and dark caramel brown in color. Its aroma contained notes of mild caramel malt . Its mouth feel is initially tingly smooth with a lingering palate and a caramel malt aftertaste. Its flavor contained malty caramel notes. The flavor lasts a long time into the finish. Very yummy.
