Rustic, malty, and complex. Displays subtle notes of baked apples and stewed pears in both nose and flavor. Hints of anise and delicate spice.

Location: 750 ml bottle from Central Market, 8/12/13
Aroma: The aroma is extremely sweet with bready malts, dark fruit, caramel, and spices
Appearance: It pours a hazed reddish color with a quick dissipating head and no lace
Flavor: Tastes mid-heavy sweet with some spice, but not enough to balance the sweetness
Palate: The body is medium, it is fairly sticky, has lively carbonation, and a tingly finish
Overall Impression: This beer is okay but not great. The flavors work decently together, but still, it feels a drop flawed. Overall, it is a little too sweet and fairly unexciting.

Pours a cloudy orange-brown color with a medium foamy off-white head that dissipates steadily. Partial rings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of musty malt and citrus. Light to medium body with flavors of grainy malt, lemons and yeast. The finish is slightly funky with a fruity aftertaste. Just average overall.

On tap at Richmond Arms. Pours a cloudy coppet with large white head leaving sticky along the glass. The aroma is yeast and pepper. Medium mouthfeel with a raisin malt and metallic finish. Easy to drink a decent biere de garde from Southern Star.

Bottle sample at a spring beers tasting at Norma Jean. Hazy amber with a beige head. Aroma of yeast, fruits, spicy herbal notes and malt. Sweetish flavor with some malt, a bit of caramel, fruits, some yeasty notes and a drier finish with some spicy notes. Medium-bodied.

On tap at Petrol Station. Pours a clear caramel amber with a tan head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma is full of bread with some backing sweet grains and a hint of underlying light fruits. Flavor is a bit bland with notes of bread and grains with the slightest hint of light fruit in the finish.
