Draft at O’Briens: Dark ruby chocolate color, nose of citrusy fruity hops, a bit of raspberry and light roast. Nice blend of creamy hop and fruity flavors. Nice body and thick mouthfeel. Balanced. Yum!

(Draught, Stuffed Sandwich) Pours a murky dark brownish red body with a medium-sized off-white head. Aroma of light roastiness and spices. Flavor of malt, mild hops, light fruit, and spices.

At O’Brien’s. The beer pours to a dark brassy/brown body with a thin off-white head. The aroma is light. Toasty/roasty malts and supposed hops (I surely don’t smell the dry hopping). The flacor is malty, toasted toffee, smooth yet very light hops. Robust malts, tobacco. The palate is a lingering tartness/bitterness in the back of the throat. This is one of the weakest Alesmith products I’ve ever had, or I simply wasn’t in the mood to have it. :(

Pours with a deep blood red body topped by a thick head with a good amount of lacing. It’s sweet and malty with notes of caramel and a nice citrusy hop note that adds a great bitterness. Medium bodied and smooth. I had both the cask and the draft versions. Both were great but the cask was a little young and seemed a little weaker in both aroma and flavor.

Tap @ Papago
Good sweet fruit aroma. Dark red body with tan head. Had mainly a flavor of plumbs and some hop bitterness on the finish. Medium dry palate a good brew.
