Tallahassee, Fl. - New Leaf Market - 12 oz bottle. Dark copper pour, sticky, off-white head that leaves good lacing. Rich, molasses-like aroma with hints of ripening vegetables. Rib sticking flavor with some prunes, raisins, a hint of chocolate with thte same molasses riding through the back end. Thick chewy mouthfeel. All around a most decent, stick to your ribs, bock

12oz bottle. Pours clear, golden/amber color. Rocky eggshell colored head. Creamy texture. Sweet rich malt. Flavors of honey and toffee. Finishes with one of the greatest hop flavors I’ve had all day. Spicy and calmingly bitter. Prost

The aroma is very malty with cereal grains, caramel, and grassy hops. The appearance is amber with a large head. The flavor is like the aroma but very bitter. The palate is typical for the style. Overall I like it but it’s astringently bitter with a soapy quality.

gives a nice aroma with a deep caramel yet not too heavy flavor. Taste feels a bit astrigent in the after taste. it has some big flaws but is still very drinkable.

Poured a hazy copper amber with a thin head. A mild malty aroma with a creamy texture. There is a mild bite that slowly developed into a easy bitterness with some background sweetness of caramel.
