On tap. Poured a medium copper color with a small sized off white head. Aromas of caramel, doughy and some citrus. Tastes of pretty much the same.

amber. Aroma is sweet malt and some toffee and very slight chocolate. Taste is sweet, malty(caramel) with a mild bitter finish.

12 oz bottle. Clear copper colour with a thick white head. Sweet toasty, caramelly aroma. Very bready and sweet. Flavour is sweet and malty with caramel, toffee, and bready notes coming through. Complex and almost rye-like character. I really dig the aroma of this and while sweet, it isn’t cloying.

Cloudy red, thin ring of beige foam. Faint floral and toffee aroma. Faintly fruity and grapey aroma, with toffee notes as well. Nice, but perhaps a bit too understated.

Received one bottle in trade from JB. Almost no head on this pour. Malt in the aroma and flavoe with a slighty sour finish.

Pours a hazy brick-ish color with no head. Smells a little like malt and almost smoky. A fairly thin flavor, but it does taste like a red ale. Failry thin mouthfeel. Easy drinking. A slight hoppy finish.
