Dogbrick (24210) reviewed Devil Dog Pale from Tun Tavern 18 years ago
Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7
Sample at the brew pub: Lightly hazed amber color with a minimal bone white head and nil lacing. Light malt and hops in the nose. Medium body with a citrusy hops flavor and a bit of malt. The flavor doesn’t seem to have a lot of legs though. The finish is mildly bitter and lingers a little. Pretty run of the mill overall.
Dogbrick (24210) reviewed Irish Red from Tun Tavern 18 years ago
Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 5 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6
Sample at the brew pub: Pours a deep and clear amber color with a minimal off-white head and very little lacing. Light malt aroma with touches of hops. Medium body with an overall bitter character, along with hints of roasted malt. The finish is midly bitter with a rather flavorless aftertaste of hops. Barely average overall.
Dogbrick (24210) reviewed Tun Light from Tun Tavern 18 years ago
Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 5 | Flavor - 5 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6
Sample at the brew pub: Clear bubbly gold color with a nil white head that is gone almost instantly. No lacing of which to speak. Lightly hopped aroma that is a little grassy. Light bubbly body with mild hops and malt flavor. Just a hint of citrus too. The finish is refreshing but ulitimately not very flavorful. There is a light hops aftertaste that doesn’t linger long. Par for the course with what one would expect in a Light beer in a brew pub attached to a hotel.

On tap...dark bar, yet it appears to be light brown with some red tinges...a nice mingle of delicate hop flavor and malts wrapped in a beer hug...no lasting foam...fresh hop aroma....a crisp flavor, very easy on the palate

Fresh out of the tap...Not a pungent aroma at all...dark brown with some red highlights...in a dark table at the bar mind you...honey is apparent with an unbalance of honey versus malt...the foam unsettling that doesn’t persist

Fresh from the tap, this beer has a spicy nose, a creamy body and a nice pumpkin flavor...not overdone with spices in any fashion...a good pumpkin to sip or slam...the only downside is that if it sits for too long it seems to lose the creaminess and seems to gain a slighty sour quality

The bar is dark, but the beer appears to be a dark copper...it has a nice hop characteristic...it seems like its missing something or just a little over malted...it has a nice finish ..a very mellow IPA
