Nitro in West Chester. Amber body with a frothy off-white head. Very weak nose but not bad. Flavor was also subtle with some carmel malts and a little citrus. Didn’t get much out of this one.

Draft at Media. Reddish-copper colored with a 1-finger off-white nitro head. The aroma was of caramel malt, big tobacco, and red winey fruits. The palate was medium in body, with a great silky smoothness and flavors of caramel malt, fruit, cabernet, and some tobacco notes.

West Chester. On nitro. Nothing to smell here. Standard red flavor with a little more hops bite than I expected. Nothing to write home about. Man, I hate nitro.

Wilmington, nitro tap. Pours a reddish amber body, cascading foam and a creamy nitro head. As per usual, the nitro has killed any aroma that may have been there. Flavor is quite pleasant, a bit nutty, some mild hoppiness, but mostly sweet, smooth malts. Mouthfeel is creamy and smooth, making this mild but very drinkable.

Poured an amber color with a small, off white head that left light lacing on the glass. Aroma of caramel malts, earth, and light citrus. Taste of caramel, toffee, butterscotch, light citrus, with a dry finish.

On tap at the North Wales Location. Poured a deep and dark amber/red color with a very small white head. Subtle and light aromas (some caramel). Lightly sweet. I had this one after their Wee Heavy & Doppelbock and this one was a let down.

Red color, thick & creamy off-white head, veyr smooth, but very bland & somewhat tasteless, a decent session beer but nothing all that special or to write home about
