Bottle thanks to jah noth. Pours amber in color with a quickly diminishing white head. Aromas of sweet malts, caramel, vanilla, and some fruit notes. Flavors up front are sweet malts, also a bit fruity. Finish is moderately hoppy and bitter.

A nice and smooth, strong brew. Has hints of malts and hops. Nice dark gold/light brown color. Tastes of of smooth malts with very light hops. Not too much carbonation in this brew which is a very pleasant attribute. Has a nice easy and smooth aftertaste. This is great brew from Long Trail. Good job guys.

POured a dark amvber to brown color with an off white head. Aroma was really malty and caramel with notes of alcohol. Flavor was also very malty not much hops here at all, hints of metallic and alcohol flavor that is hard to get over.

Pours amber with a thick off white head. Caramel malt molasses and a hint of hop aroma. Nice malty body with a good earthy hop bitterness. Solid version of an Alt.
