tap brewery. Actually named Kurts Mile High Malt. light copper pour with lacing. funky malt aroma. taste much the same. meaty and mild smoke, mild malts. balance is good.

On tap at the brewpub on 10/15/07: Pours a clear orange bronze with a thin, wispy-lacing white head. Aroma of grainy pale maltiness with a mild sweetness and some earthy hops. Body starts with a mild malty sweetness and some graininess and earthy bittering hops. Finishes slightly roasty, drier and bittersweet. An interesting brew.

Tap @ Wynkoop. Hazy deep golden color with a small lacy off-white head. Caramel and bready malt aroma with some earthy notes. Hint of coffee underneath. Malty caramel with a mild coffee finish. Some hops mix in as well. That’s a good thing because it would seem odd with more. Light to medium body.

Draught, Wynkoop. Head is mostly diminishing. Body is light amber. Aroma is lightly malty (toasted grain, cookie), lightly hoppy (apricot), moderately yeasty (dough, sweat). Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly sweet, moderately bitter, unclean. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation. Very yeasty with a poor aftertaste. Not enjoyable.
