CaptainCougar (4633), Rockville, Maryland, USA Feb 23, 2008 Pours a transparent copper amber with ruby hues and a thin, stringy-lacing off-white head. Aroma of lightly sweet earthy grainy toasted nutty malts. Body starts lightly sweet, nutty and grainy with a light bitterness and earthy finish. Pretty true to style and drinkable. hopdog (4552), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 9, 2008 12oz bottle. Poured a medium and cloudy orangish color with an averaged sized off white head. Aromas of some earthiness, bready, and toasted caramel. Tastes of caramel, bread, and lighter earthiness. BückDich (4540), Boise, Idaho, USA Mar 13, 2008 Bottle: Dark brown, tawny color, tannish head. Nose of sweet light caramel, grass and some juniper. The flavor is balanced, chewy malts, generic bittering hops. OK Mouthfeel, good red. A bit lacking in punch but drinkable and a good body.
