6.3/10 β€” Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 6

Location: Updating with a 12 oz bottle from State Line, 11/10/12

Aroma: Sweet and malty nose, caramel, nuts, roast, bread, and earthy notes
Appearance: It pours a dark amber color with a small beige head
Flavor: The taste is not super sweet, its a little roasty and bread, with a mild bitterness
Palate: The body is light-medium, it has a tingly feel, and a lightly dry finish
Overall Impression: Overall, my rating isn't going to change much. I had the score just about right here, though I feel the nose could go up a drop score-wise, and the palate may have been better on draft.
3.1: 7/3/6/3/12

Location: Tap at the Brewpub, Harrisburg location, 6/13/10

Aroma: It has a moderately sweet nose with notes of caramel and malts
Appearance: Dark amber colored beer
Flavor: The taste is malty as well, almost no hop presence
Palate: The most notable part of palate is the smoothness of it
Overall Impression: This was a solid beer, nothing too exciting, but it is decently well-made. Very smooth and drinkable. Solid stuff.
