Description
Great beer, good music in back, odd people. We are a small microbrewery located south of Chicago in Lansing, Illinois. Our tasting room serves eight different selections of our hand-crafted beer. Our beer won't make you strong or handsome, but if you appreciate craft beer and want to meet some guys that are happy to make it, serve it, and probably drink it with you.

Sample at Great Taste of the Midwest on 08/09/2014: Dark amber color with a medium white head that diminishes gradually to a dense film. Patchy lacing on the glass. Aroma of roast malt, tropical fruit and hops. Medium body with flavors of slightly smoky malt, fruity hops and caramel. The finish is malty up front with a hoppy aftertaste. Decent overall.

Bottle @ RBSG Grand Tasting. Pours a reddish brown appearance with a brown head. Port, dark grape, leather, slightly burnt malty, chocolate aroma. Twangy, caramel, grape medicine, oak, chocolate flavor. A bit top sweet and a bit too boozy. Kind of strange flavors.
