On tap at a hotel by the brewery. Not bad, but nothing to bring me back to NC for. Amber color. A little sweet. OK

Draft at Abbey Road, Cary NC. Pours a red amber with no head at all. Aroma is sweet and nutty. The flavor is sweet acidic and a little bit tangy, but still nutty. To watered down and acidic for my palate.

Slightly hazy amber colour. Thin head. Malty, caramelly nose is fairly straightforward. Lightly toasty accent to a largely caramelly palate. Clean but simple.

tap. almost no head present into a semi-sparkling amber body. always have thought that this one has had a bit to much of that nuttiness aroma. decent though.

Draft. Pours a dark reddish brown color. The Aroma is a nice malt one, with notes of sweetness to it. Flavor is actually a lot more refreshing than the ratings would indicate. I’d take this over other macros any day if I was in Greensboro.

Draft. Dark red/brown, small head. Malty, grainy nose. There’s a nice malt flavor mixed with some extra sweetness...honey, caramel. A little hop bitterness tries to balance things, but it’s still pretty malt-heavy. Easy drinking, not toooo boring, but not much going on here. Better than macros for a nice change of pace at a bar.
