Served on draft at the Michigan Summer Beerfest, 2010, as part of RBSG festivities. Pours a dark hazy amber color with a medium tan head. Looks murky and nearly mudlike. Decent head retention and lacing. Aroma of caramel, toffee and apples. The taste is toffee and stone fruits, including plums and peaches. Medium bodied.

On tap a MBG Summer Festival. Poured dark amber with an off-white head. Aroma consisted mainly of malts leading to a grainy aroma with a spicy undertone. Flavor was malty with a mild bitterness and some undertone of spices.

@ Michigan Beerfest-on tap-pours an off white ring for a head and cloudy amber color. Aroma is sweet medium malt-caramel, secondary herbal/spice hops. Taste is sweet medium malt-caramel, secondary herbal/spice hops-some bitterness. Rich medium body mouth feel that finishes dry/some pepper/spice.

Yellow with some faint orange flecks and a tiny bit hazy at the start. Decent white foamy head. Begins spicey, cinnamon, clove, and orange blossom. Develops into a medium body with some sweet appeal complements of the honey. Finishes with a tangy sour/bitterness with notes of peachy sweetness. Good carbonation levels and a very fuzzy texture make for an interesting beer. Light fruity smell. Could use more malt and a less one-sided honeyish body, which gives it too much of a pseudo body. Ends a touch watery as well. Alcohol is moderate and fairly well masked.
