Draft. Poured brown with not much head. Caramel etc. Kind of thin not bready malty enough IMO.

The store formerly called Marketplace Wine & Spirits: pours clear light brown with nice beige head. So this is either infected or supposed to taste like a slightly sour, cherryish beer. Usually a beer that is clearly infected, I will not rate, but I al having a very similar experience with this beer as are a lot of the raters here. I chugged through this because I do not waste beer, but I did not enjoy it.

On tap. Pours with a clear bronze body with red highlights and a small, off-white head. Aromas are malty, light raisins, grainy, cereal. No real malt complexity. Flavors are sweet with what seems like crystal malt, bready, toasty, dark fruits and raisins. A touch of earthy spice. Medium to lower bubbles, fuller body with some alcohol. Lacks complexity.

Growler from Market Street Wineshop, Uptown, Charlottesville, VA. Pours a dark clear cramberry red with a large frothy tan head. Decent head retention and lacing. Aroma of raisins, toasted malts, nuts, caramel, toffee and herbal hop notes. Taste is toasted malts, toffee, raisins, cherries, bitter hop finish. Smooth, thin-medium bodied.
