An American Strong Ale, it leans on English Marris Otter barley. Rich, finishes dry without much residual sweetness. A fine balance between hops and barley make this beer easy drinking for 8.4% abv.

At Grumpy’s northeast. Light copper color. Balanced malt and hop flavors. Hops taste just a little bit old. Dry malt and lightly bitter hops. Alcohol is very prominent in the aroma and flavor.

Bright orange, fizzy but no head, no lacing. Aroma of apple cider. Taste is slightly sour, lots of malt, apples, cinnamon, like an apple pastry. Interesting.

Tap at Barcade. Really good beer. Super sweet all around. Pours a light red with a medium, pure white head. Nose of heavy caramel, light yeast and some sweet malts. Flavor follows similarly: notes of caramel, honey, pineapple, and fruit juice. Thick and syrupy on mouthfeel with medium carbonation. Sticky sweetness on the finish. Definitely a slow, sipping beer.
