Craft Beer, Done Right

Draft Taproom (Charlottesville). Pours gold; was thinking this would be red based on the name. Light citrus nose, hint of vanilla and malt. Flavor is burnt malts, citrus peel, vanilla. Somewhat disappointing.

Draft taproom. Pours brown with a large light brown head. Aroma is nutty as hell, some coffees, but most nuts - perhaps hazelnut. Flavor is nut, weird funky perfume, chocolate, coffee it must be the flavor of the nuts that I hate. But I really don't care for this at all. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
