A clear amber color that offered no head. Strong malt aroma with a certain syrupy sweetness. From the first taste there was a slight bite. This beer tended to bunch up on the back of the palate. Not bad but not in too much of a hurry to try again.

Bottle. Amber body with a lasting foamy head. Taste-ver cereal, honey, straw, hops. Better than I expected.

Tap at Bacchus. Orange with a small off-white head. Citrus hop aroma. Flavor was a mix of citrus hops and malt. Flavors did not come together as well as I like. To much harsh hops and not enough malt.

Attractive amber brown. Sort of lacking in the nose with a light malt aroma. Sweet malts with a thick fairly uncarbonated body. I can’t see myself turning one down, but nothing special here.

Mohogany pour, thin body, light beige head. The aroma is malty with some cholocate hints. Not bad.

Pours a nice amber color with a tannish head that goes away fast. A sweet aroma that I can’t quite put my finger on. A nice malty/hoppy flavor in the front but quickly turns into a burnt/bitter after taste.
