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.

Oh my god im in heaven Bottle. Pours a dark amber color with a decent beige head. The aroma is caramel and toffee with some citrus and floral hops. The flavor is similar with the malts being ever so slightly more present than the hops. Overall this is pretty well balanced. Medium bodied with good carbonation.

12 oz bottle, about 1.5 weeks past its best by date. Pours clear amber with a small white head. Malty biscuit aroma, slightly sweet honey. Sweet honey biscuit flavor with a touch of hops. Honey mostly gives way to more biscuit after a few sips. This is a good, flavorful lager.
