Reviewed from notes.
This was poured into a pint glass at the brewpub.
The appearance was a slight light hazy amber color. There was a decent transparency to it allowing carbonation to be seen rising at a moderate pace to fill a one finger white foamy head that dissipated within about a minute. Lacing stuck but eventually slid into the body.
The smell had some light caramel malts lightly backed up by a nice gently roasted nuttiness.
The taste followed the nose in a sweet slightly roasty way.
On the palate, this was sessionable in a nice light sweet roasty way.
Overall, I almost always had this with their reuben when I would make the drive back to the U.P. where I used to live. Good beer.

On tap at the brewpub. Clear amber colored ale with some nice sheets of lacing. Sweet coppery and malty taste. Syrupy mouthfeel.

Draught at the brewpub
Hazy amber color. Both the aroma and the flavor show some sugar, and of course some caramel taste; the mouthfeel is quite dry, because of the medium-high bitterness. Simple.

Sample at the Gaylord location: Clear amber color with a thin ivory head that dissipates steadily. Minimal lacing is evident. Light-bodied and mildly bitter with a touch of sweetness. The finish is light citrusy hops. Not the best "transition" between their lighter and darker beers. While it is not a bad beer, I think I will just skip over this transitional step next time.

Sampled draught at Big Buck, Grapevine, Texas.
Amber coloured. Lightly roasty. Sweet and light bodied. Soapy grapefruit hoppiness. Uninspired.
