The flag-ship Dock Street recipe brewed fresh right here at our local brewery in West Philly. Brewed with American Cascade hops and 2-row pale and caramel malts. It is full bodied, exceptionally balanced and always admired for its clean smooth finish.

Draught at source: pours amber with off white head. Aroma is caramel and toasty. Taste is malty, toasty. Old school, because it is.

From old tasting notes. Nice Amber orange color. Creamy beige head. toasted malt aroma with a hint of hops. Toasted malt flavor is soft and fruity. Tart dry hops in finish. Complex and flavorful with spicy hops in aftertaste.

From tapatthe brewpub, 4.5%. Pours hazy orange with a small white head. Aroma is grapefruity and slight peachy hoppy. Smooth fruity, toasted malt and crisp hoppy. Bitter and toasted malty. Dry finish.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a light caramel color with a small white head that fades quickly. The aroma is faint sour malts. The flavor is moderately malty and smooth with light floral hops and a dry nutty finish. Pleasant if unspectacular.

12 oz bottle-pours a foamy offwhite head with clear gold color. Aroma is malt with a non-favorable edge and hops. Taste follows right in line. What is that additional characteristic? rerate-had this again, thanks to Rosemarie-no drawbacks this time. Must have been a bad batch previously. Great balanced malt/hop character.

Nice brownish color, slight head quickly dissipated. Mildly fruity and somewhat Englishy. Very drinkable. I'm not sure who is making this these days. Poor Henry's had been making it for Dock Street, but PH is long gone, but I've seen these Dock St bottles return to the shelves. *Somebody* is bottling for DS now, don't know who.
