Aromas of chocolate and toffee with a small amount of hops. Huge malt taste with no bitterness and a nice carmel finish.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 27, 2006 Pours a clear dark copper mahogany with a thin off-white head. Aroma of toasty, nutty caramel malts with some light sweetness, aroma hops and very true to style. Body starts semi-sweet with some toasted nutty flavor, light butterscotch and a touch of bittering hops. Finishes sort of bland and bittersweet. Not a bad red ale, but nothing that great either.

Mild fruity hops. Hazy reddish amber with no head. Medium-light watery body with low carbonation. Rather bland on taste. Has some mild characteristics with feeble malt presence and very little hop character. Mild dry fruit skins and dry chalky after. Very little bitterness anywhere, and finishes with carbonic acidity.
