Draft. Pours light cloudy brown, with an an orange tint. Thin, pillowy white head. Aroma of hops, yeast, barley, walnuts, and hints of chocolate and pepper. Fuller bodied with a nice, crisp, bold moutfeel. Smooth, nutty finish. Very good.

rerate due to notes intermingling. Draft at Craft. Pours hazy deep coppery with 1-finger off-white head. Nose is spicy yeast, florals, bready funk, fruit, malt. Tastes bready malty, citric, with hops, spicy funk, and a rich, complex palate.

Draft @ Union Jack’s Glenside; golden medium bodied with slight foam ring. Lighter bitterness than expected which allowed caramel, nutty malt with a hint of fruitiness shine through.

On tap at Capones. Poured a medium and cloudy golden-amber color with an averaged sized, frothy, off white head. Aromas of citrus, caramel, fruity, and woody. Tates of citrus, the same woodiness, fruity, caramel, toffee, and citrus. Light to medium alcohol in the finish.

Golden color with a big burnt sugar and citrus/candy aroma. Flavor is of burnt orange and candies from Halloween that you didn’t really want. WTF?! This pretty much makes a wheatwine look like Mad Dog 20/20.

Draft @ Capone’s: Poured a dark amber color with a little head. The aroma was fruits, nuts, caramel, and yeast. The flavor was sweet dark fruits, wood and grains. Overall, decent brew but not great.

Draught at TND: Aroma of fruit, hops, grains, and slight smoke. Poured copper/amber in color with a medium-sized white head that lasted throughout. Cloudy. Very good lacing. Lightly sweet, light to medium bitter flavor. Tastes of fruit, grains, hops, tobacco, grapes, and wood. Medium body. Dry texture. Average to lively carbonation. Grapy, tar, bitter finish is dry. 9%ABV is well hidden.

On tap at Bridgid’s, from the tap poured a dark amber color with a small head. Nice malty flavor with a lingering alcohol aftertaste.
