Draft. A hazy red beer with a bubbly tan head. The aroma has notes of fresh hops, caramel, malt, spices, and citrus fruits. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, alcohol, citrus fruits hops, and spices, leading to a dry finish.

Draught @Tommyknocker, Helsinki. Pours dark reddish orange with a smooth head. Aroma of malts, caramel, toffee, berries and hints of sourness. Taste is filled with off flavors, sourness, earthiness and tart notes with some berries and caramely malts. Finish is messy and feels off with some sourness, berries and caramel. Feels off.

Autumn Brew Review 2015. Hazy red color. Dry and earthy. Lots of malt, making it sweet. Very little hop presence. not a lot going on here, but the flavor is good.

Location: 16 oz can from Nikki's Liquors, 4/17/15
Aroma: Has a heavily caramel malt aroma, other malts, plus some herbal and floral notes
Appearance: This one pours an unclear amber color with a frothy beige head and medium lace
Flavor: The malts dominate this one, strongly caramel, somewhat sweet, the bitterness is mild
Palate: Medium bodied, fairly sticky, with a soft carbonation, and a somewhat sticky finish
Overall Impression: I wasn't a huge fan of this beer. There's just too much caramel without enough hops to balance it out.
