I give this a better grade because it damn well tastes like pretzel. Some light crisp papery salt finish. Lots of pretzel. Bread yeast. Scored this by sneaking into the VIP section by acting like Omar from the Wire and watching and waiting. Some salt. On tap at DC Summerfest.

Draft and did NOT ask for the caramel syrup and salt rim around the glass. The color was a deeper red with amber hues. Not much in the way of head retention. The aroma is a toasted bread and pretzels. I almost had some hope for this based on the smell, silly me.
Flavor is toasted malt with hints of caramel. Not much else. Thin watery body with a burnt toasted finish. I was having dinner at a chain restaurant and ordered this foolishly. I only drank half of it because all I could get was watered down caramel. Really don’t waste your money, not pleasant.
