Jun 19, 2009 From tronraner via trade. Dark copper or light brown on the pour. Short, off-white head. The aroma is toasted malt, with lighter, fruity sweetness. The flavor is mostly toasted malt with an artificial fruit flavor and some light spice. Thin mouthfeel. Not great.

Jun 10, 2009 20090610 12oz bottle from the Five Points BP gas station in Huntsville, AL. Dark caramel color with small, fading tan head. Aroma is caramel, nuts, and toasty grain with light background earthiness. Medium to light body with fine eff. Rich, malty flavors, light coffee notes, bready, a bit of a cereal lingering aftertaste but otherwise finishes dry and mostly quenching. Decent enough--this seems to be a pretty reliable brewery based on the three beers I’ve had.

Jun 8, 2009 Updated: Sep 7, 2009no head, clear brown color, caramel sweetness nose, big malt bomb, very mild hint at a roast, a hint at some rye bitterness, mildly sweet but not at all cloying, just enough bitters to give a some balance to the beer, wouldn’t have guessed altbier, maybe vienna lager, either way i like this beer quite a bit, especially given that its brewed in the south

May 25, 2009 Sampled at Schlafly Repeal of Prohibition festival. Pours clar bronze / brown with a soapy beige head. The aroma is nutty, creamy and toasty with some sweetness. Medium clean body with small amount of carbonation. The toast is a lightly soured version of the aroma with some lemon. Not as interesting or complex as the aroma.

May 16, 2009 A dark amber pour with a tan head. Aroma is caramel. Flavor is distinct and interesting. Sweet licorice (light) notes. Some vegetable thing going on. Creamy and zingy feel.

May 8, 2009 Reddish-brown with a tan head. Nutty, roasted malts abound. Similar to an English brown ale. Light body with corn flavors balance out the sweet malts. Satisfying and complex. Good for those who claim they don’t like dark beers.
