On draft, Amberish color with red hues. Malty and drinkable. Not much to this one, but a nice drinking beer at 6.1 percent.

Thorpe429 (3823) - Alexandria, Virginia, USA - DEC 1, 2010
On tap at the brewpub in Auust 2008. Pours a nice rusty reddish color with an off white head that leaves behind a tad bit of lacing. Nose is somewhat muting wihout mug coming through other than some doughy malt. Taste is a bit better with some bread along with caramel and a nice nuttiness, although that is not terribly apparent. Overall, somewhat plain. Medium body and decent carbonation levels. Drinkability is okay. Not my favorite beer of theirs. Serving type: on-tap Reviewed on: 09-29-2010

SledgeJr (3577) - Omaha, Nebraska, USA - JUN 2, 2010
Sampled at the 7th Annual Parkville Microbrew Festival on April 24th, 2010. Pours a reddish amber with a thin white head. A boring and worthless beer. Is this supposed to be a vienna style? It sucks.

Draft. Pours an amber "crimson" body with a white head. Dull malt body with cereal grains and a light bitterness. A bit buttery with a grainy paper finish. Eh.
