Amber color, with a white head, fruity, grainy, caramelized malt, crystal malt in the aroma follows through on a sweet toasted malt, with a faintly nutty accent, leading towards a malty and subtle dry finish.

From Growler, Poured at Rock Bottom, Pittsburgh

Beautiful amber color, with thick, creamy, foamy white head. Head was present and nice lacing all the way through. Sweet aroma. Flavors of caramel, toffee, and something else I can’t quite put my finger on. Nice malty brew, smooth to drink. Mouthfeel is medium. Light dry finish.

On tap at the Rock Bottom in KOP. Poured a rich amber with a small tan head. Sweet caramel aroma with even more caramel and some malts in the taste.

A middle-of-the-road amber, but not bad. Amber colored with aroma of toffee, malt, some cabernet. Tastes caramel malty with some coffee dryness at the end.
