Draft at DRE. Copper pour, with caramel malt, black peppery spicy, and some floral earthy notes. Fairly smooth, with doughy caramel malt flavor backed up by peppery and some floral notes.

Draught: Faint aroma of dirt and mildew. Poured a brown/ruby color with a small, dense, creamy, tan head that diminished slowly. Flavor of bubblegum and yeast. Light to medium body. Thin, watery texture. Soft carbonation. Chalky finish. Overall, thin with an odd flavor.

KSBF07 Poured a dark orange color. Aroma was pepper spice bready. Flavor was overwelmed by the peppery finish, bready and caramel in there. Not my favorite

Draft at KSBF07. Orangey-brown in color, nothing else really noted/notable. The aroma was bready malts, some fruity esters, and peppery type spices. The flavor was caramel and bread malts, fruity esters, and phenolic peppery bite in the finish. Mouthfeel was a little light, not hearty enough.

On tap at KSBF ’07. Poured a deeper and cloudy / muddy brownish-orange color with a smaller sized off white head. Aromas of bananas, yeast, spices, and a little bready. Tastes of bananas, yeast, caramel, and lighter spices. Tastes weaker vs. the aromas.
