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.

Bottle pours a nice brownish color with a frothy head. The glass laves nicely as a drink. There is a very sweet malty flavor to this one with a touch of toastyness and caramel. The finish is sweet and smooth, A tasty beer!

Dark amber color, decent head and lacing. Malty, sweet aroma. Sweet malt, roasted flavor with a slight bitterness towards the finish. The finish is slightly dry Re-Rate 11-07-04 I’ve been drinking this beer for a while now, and IMO it has one of the best finishes in beerdom. Slightly bitter, burnt brown sugar goodness. Excellent

Bottle: Aroma of caramel with light hops. Pours a transparent amber with a small white head. Fruit and buttery caramel up front with a well balanced a very tastey grapefruit hop finish. Very good.

Pours a more red of an amber color with a slight beige head. Real good flavor to it, can really taste sweet caramel and it’s malty, nice hop kick and actually alcohol kick to it that give it a nice bite.
