(06.21.07) On tap at Magnolia Pub and Brewery, San Francisco, CA. 3.9% ABV. Clear dark brown ale with tiny white head. No discernable carbonation. No discernable aroma. Starts dry with very slight nutty flavor. Short finish with light malt fade. No discernable hop presence. Light to medium bodied. This beer has very little flavor, almost like water. A mediocre offering.

Mar 12, 2009 Uninspiring. Bitter. Not enough sweetness or caramel. I thought this one lacked any real flavor to it.

Jan 13, 2009 Cask. Pours a clear, dark reddish brown with a small off white head. Sweet, malty aroma to go along with a body that is reminiscent of tea. Tons of malt here, lots of flavor for a mild style.

Jan 11, 2009 (10/30/08) Draught sample at the brewpub in San Francisco. 4.0%. As the name suggests - deep ruby color. Aroma of malt and butterscotch. Sweet buttery flavor with some toasted malt notes and sour hints in the finish. Light-bodied. Not really good.

Nov 27, 2008 Cask @ Magnolia’s. Pours a deep, clear black-cherry color; creamy, light-tan head with gorgeous retention and fine-bubbled lacing; great pour. Soft aroma of milk chocolate, overripe red fruits, and toffee; a touch light. Light-to-medium mouthfeel: a touch watery on the edges; chocolate, light coffee, and a touch of acidic red fruit; a bit under-concentrated, but very drinkable. Medium mouthfeel: toasty grains, light chocolate and coffee; balanced end.
