A clear brown ale with a thin off white head. In aroma, raising bread and herbal malts (glass was too warm, so more fruity esters were being ejected from the glass.) In mouth, a good nutty malt, oily mouthfeel, nice and smooth. On tap at brewpub, Feb. 26 2010.

Sampled this on tap at the Shirlington location. Pours a translucent, caramel brown with a frothy, slightly beige head. Aroma was a definite let down, some slight nuttiness, some light caramel and that’s pretty much it. Flavors were the same and fairly neutral, some sweet caramel malts, nuts, some dark breads. Finish has some lasting sweetness, kinda watery. Below average.

Capitol Hill location. Roasty, sweet flavors. Malty. It certainly isn’t their greatest beer, but I thought it was better than many I’ve had elsewhere.
