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.

An amber beer with a disappearing orange head. The aroma is sweet and very fruity combined with notes of caramel, and a touch of alcohol. The flavor has primary notes of caramel, and a dry mouthfeel that starts quite early, and leads to a bitter hoppy end.

Rich, deep amber colour; chewy nose of fresh malt; crisp, with good, evenly balanced malt flavours, balanced by toasty notes and a well-structured bitterness.

Lightly hazed copper body with beige head. Aroma is moderately sweet, strong toffee/caramel. Taste is medium sweet, toffee/caramel, light earthy. Light-medium body. The toffee, without more, is just too overpowering to me.

Bottle. Reddish amber color. Milk chocolate, caramel and pear in the aroma and flavor. Grassy hops and some black berries. Sweetish with a somewhat sticky mouthfeel, but well balanced. Tobacco in the aftertaste.
