This sounded like an odd concoction, and it lived up to expectations. Cask at Churchkey. Very cloudy copper colored with no head to speak of. Aroma of dilute Starbuck’s. Taste was pretty similar, light coffee. No balance, no complexity.

not too bad, i wasnt sure of what to expect, had this one on draft @ gaslamp grill. somehow, im not sure, you can tell that its organic, like its missing a certain ingrediant that normal beers have, good IPA though.

Deep copper tinted amber coloured body with a very nice two centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of nuts, roasted malt, caramel, pit fruits and a dose of metal. Medium-bodied; Assertive aggressive roasted malt flavours with tons of nuts and caramel coming through. Aftertaste shows a bit of coffee, although not much at all, but the roasted malt and bitter nuts really cuts through. Overall, a pretty mild and rather plain amber ale with a hint of coffee but more hints of nuts and caramel. I didn’t like this that much and would definitely pass on another. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Chevy Chase Wine & Spirits in Washington, DC on 25-July-2009, sampled at home in Washington on 22-September-2009.

Pours clear deep gold with towering rocky off white head. The aroma has mild sweet fruity notes and hints of dusty grainy wheat. The taste has a mild carbonation enhanced sour fruitiness that persists in the background as sweeter dark berry, sweet malts and grainy wheat well up then fade away into the finish.
