Draft. Pours a reddis amber coloration. Some hops. Drinkable but nothing spectacular going on here.

16 oz pour on draft at Legal Test Kitchen in Boston. Served in a Harpoon glass. Clear dark amber with off-white head. Aromas of caramel, dark fruit, malt. Tastes of caramel, toffee, malt, light cocoa and biscuit, toasty notes. Medium body with a dry finish. Solid.

Reviewed from notes.
The appearance had a clear amber colored body with some carbonation seen rising and a creamy lasting white head, it leaves ringy foamy lacing.
The smell had roasty malts and caramel, light hops ever so slightly in the background.
The taste takes the caramel and comes back and has some roastiness to it.
The palate sat about a medium, sessionable, smooth, no aftertaste, quick caramel finish.
Overall, this is not a bad beer, but nothing to scream about, might have again, unsure?

Tap at Macgregors. Nice malty nose, caramel, cherry, gum balls. Nose is a bit faint, but flavor is right on, very malty and rounded. Slight roasting. Very drinkable.

Total Wine, Fairfax 12oz: Pours amber with a whitish head. Caramel malts are really nice. Nice and a little sweet. A lot of toffee. Even though this was past the best before date, and it is still pretty nice. No signs of the age. Anyway, it is nice and sessionable.
