I had this in a bomber and On tap at the Vintage Estates in Ohio, very nice place! Nice looking sparkly dark beer appearance. Good soda like aroma, attractive to the olfactory. Excellent carbonation and feel on the palate. A little roasty on the buds and comes across very like-able. At the tap it was listed as 8% but on this site it is 6%. Either way, hides the alky characters well. A fine finish. Overall, pleasantly surprized.

April 2004. Deep red copper with off white head. Light caramel aroma and roasted malts and light hops in tatste. Medium bodied. Thnaks to Muzzlehatch.

Sample on draught at Barley’s Smokehouse. Pours a dark reddish brown with a dense and thin off-white head. Malty and fruity aroma. Thin-bodied and fairly sweet with malt, molasses and caramel. The finish consists mostly of sweet fruit, along with light bitterness. Rather uninteresting for the most part.

One thing struck me immediately upon opening this beer: its aroma is very similar to Goose Island Kilgubbin Red Ale. Flavor is between Kilgubbin and a doppelbock. Malty sweet, with a bready, bitter aftertaste. Kind of thin-bodied, however. I prefer the Doppelbocks.

A decent bock, though a tad thin-bodied. Nice brown color with a good lacing. There is a slightly spicy aroma. The flavor is malty and slightly sweet, with hints of cloves and caramel. The finish is watery and boring, though. A good beer for making the transition from cold to warm weather.

Dark brown...almost black in colour. No detectable aroma....but somewhat grapey. Definate sourness with a grape overload taste. A good spring beer with a nice fresh taste.

Nice deep brown color - though little head. Medium carbonation. Sweet aroma, with a hint of hop spice. Flavor is nutty, roasty, and laced with a tinge of spicy hops. Body is a bit on the thin side, which is just about the only drawback.
