Cask. Pours an almost clear amber with a small off-white head. Avery neutral, perhaps a discreet whiff of caramel. Medium body, low carbonation and a very smooth mouthfeel. Caramel and overripe fruit with a subdued bitterness. Very easy to drink. 070412

looks like a hefe. smell of slag, but nothing rude. fairly fruity then turns alky. bitter sweet finish, just like it says. very nice pour from the bottle into a clear glass. isn’t this funny its listed as a strong ale at 5%? do you think its a coincidence its available at halloween? not too sure about that hop aftertaste.

Dark blond colour. It’s a bit fruity and sweet with a metallic aftertaste. Lacks hop bitterness. Soft, creamy texture.

Cask at the Crosse Keys. Pours clear, rich gold with a tight, white-cream cap. Aroma holds some ripish fruits and bready malts. Alright flavor, light to medium sweet, some white sugar, citric bitters, mild dough. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Somewhat sticky finish, sweet malts, light leaves and sticks, some fruity sugars. Decent.

Rodman’s, DC 500ml ($3.29): Pours a light brown with an off-white head that leaves a lacing that stays thick for about an hour. Aroma is not particularly strong, but there are sweet malts and a wee bit of fruitiness in there. The taste is slightly sweet, with the British malts taste prevalent throughout. A little bit spicy it is. The hop bitterness is very faint, but is noticeable in every sip. Not a particularly complex beer, but seems to be drinkable enough.
