12 ounce bottle from Corks & Kegs in Richmond. Pours a pretty straightforward brown color with a bit of a haze. One finger head with average retention and poor lacing. Nutty aroma with some caramel notes and a muddled hop finish. Bitter hops in the taste with chocolate, caramel and nutty notes. A little bit of alcohol is noticeable. Medium-full bodied.

Slightly hazy ruby & copper tinted amber coloured body with a very thin off-white head. Aroma of roasted malt, nuts, caramel, anise, cloves, yeast and a bit of sweet fruits - pretty nice for the style, actually! Medium-body; Soda sweetness with a chewy maltiness coupled with a bitter nut flavour. Aftertaste shows alcohol, metallic bitterness and a tiny twang of sweetness, but not much. Overall, the look and smell are great, it’s just the taste that disappoints. I probably wouldn’t recommend this, but it isn’t an absolutely horrible beer by any means. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Total Wine in Durham, North Carolina on 31-August-2008, sampled a day later at home in Washington.

An extra from ucusty. Sent in a picture to be uploaded. This beer is not bad at all. Pours with a large, rocky, off-white head covering a murky brown body. Aroma of toasted malts, nuts, some alcohol and nail polish. Taste is a bit bland, with some nuts, some nail polish, and bitterness from burn malts. A bit fizzy. Finish is bit astringent, but not too unplesant for a session.

Bottle. Sour milk and brown sugar aroma. Cloudy orange-brown with small head. Very light brown sugar malt flavor with a hint of bitterness to finish - a bit like watered down tonic water. Way too weak.

Bottle. Peach malt and light hops aroma. Orange-tan color with small head. Slightly sweet orange/grapefruit fading into a fairly strong pine/grapefruit hops finish. Light carbonation - on the hoppier side for APAs. Nice, pleasant APA.
