12oz bottle from Supreme Liquors, Cambridge MA, 6 November 2009. Coppery colour. Slight haze - maybe a chill haze as it did not appear to be bottle conditioned. Moderate beige head. Slightly earthy, berry fruit aroma with a bit of cardboard. Decent earthy hops in the flavour with a lingering bitterness and some nutty malts. Slight metallic tang but nothing too intrusive. Quite like an English best bitter in feel. Straightforward but decent enough.

Nov 8, 2009 Draft. Pours amber brown with a thin head. Light aroma, with a hint of malt and hops. The flavor has toasty malts with some earthy/floral hoppy notes. Moderate sweetness. Tasty.

Sep 20, 2009 clear copper color, fluffy quickly disipating tan head, lacy. very airy nose of sweet malt. flavor is much more complex than the aroma, spicy, nutty, musty, malty (the sweet malt in the nose seems to have fled from the flavor). medium bodied, tingly mouth feel, musty, bitter finish. an enjoyable brew which gets more interesting as it warms. i would drink this again, but i wouldn’t go out of my to get it. bottle provided by my humble servant, cornfield.

Sep 12, 2009 Ruby/amber pour with off-white head. Malt aroma. Flavor is a little caramel, some sweetness. Smooth tasting, low carbonation. Great lacing on the glass. Very easy to drink . The best of the available S.F. beers.

Sep 8, 2009 I picked this up at Kenwood Liquors in Homer Glen, IL. Nice pour, a clear copper body with a creamy, pale manilla head. It had a sweet, nutty malt aroma with some light herbal, earthy scents. The flavor mirrored the aroma, a bit more bitter than expected, It finished on an earthy, bitter note with a light hit of metallica. Actually, fairly drinkable despite that.
