Mar 16, 2009 On tap at the brewery. This was my fifth sample and the next one after the IPA, so my palate may have been a bit skewed on this one. Red color with a tiny off white head. Thin/medium bodied with a decent malt structure and a faint herbal flavor. Very little bitterness.This was kind of non descript for me, but still pleasant.

Nov 16, 2008 Draft at the brewpub. Reddish amber color. Slightly roasted aroma. Flavor is slightly roasted malt with some balancing bitter. Not a brown nor a pale nor an ESB. Almost its own style. Amber?

May 25, 2008 On tap at the Sac Brewfest. Pours beautiful deep amber with a thin oatmeal colored head. The aroma is a bit subdued with malty sweetness poking through. The flavor is that, plus a smooth, smokiness that ends cleanly.
