pepsican (707), the beer wastelands of, Iowa, USA Aug 25, 2008 amber pour with a small white head. Caramel, oranges, and grain aroma. Flavor was up front caramel, sweet corn, orange peel, and burnt tootsie roll. Creamy sweet finish. VitaminR (267), Colorado, USA Aug 23, 2008 Malty raisiny nose. Diluted cola colored with brownish orange tones, medium head, dissipated quickly. Really solid bitter-sweetness balance, one does not overpower the other consider the flavors are big. Gentle carbonation, medium to full body, long malty finish. Very well put together beer. theisti (1034), Leawood, Kansas, USA Aug 12, 2008 12 oz bottle purchased at Lukas in Overland Park, Kansas. Bottled on 07 16 2008. Pour is crystal clear ruby golden with a foamy one inch off white head. Head falls to reveal nice lace. There are a few visible carbonation bubbles that cling to the side of the glass. Aroma of toasted malt, very much like "toast" - with some caramelized sugar under that. Taste is the caramelly toasted bready malt with some almost cherry sweetness. Palate is slick and medium heavy. Sweetness in the flavor most certainly hangs around. There is just a hint of spicy grassiness as this warms which is nice. I enjoyed this beer, though more than one glass may be a bit much. Soonah (490), Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA Aug 5, 2008 Basically clear copper color with a short lived white head. The aroma was lots of malt with a bit of light spice. The flavor was malty, slightly nutty and kind of sweet. Not much in the hop department. A bit metallic on the finish. zombywoof (298), Shawnee, Kansas, USA Jul 31, 2008 Pleasant aroma-caramel malt, earth, dried fruit. Flavor is roasted malt with maple, camelized apple with a little grassiness and breadiness.
