3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle, Poured clear medium dark brown with a nice frothy brown head. Aroma was a bit sweet and subtly fruity. The first impression upon sipping was that it just had a little extra nutttiness to go along with the roast malts. Definitely has a wheat background. Fairly enjoyable on the whole I would say.

Dark brown almost back with 3 finger tan head. Smells a sweet bready malts with a little fruit. Taste is much like it smells with a nice bitter chocolate after taste. Mouthfeel is very light and thin with a little carbonation.

The aroma contains a peculiar acetic sourness along with the roasted malt. The pour and texture resemble Anchor Steam, with medium body, clear ruby color, and light but firm carbonation. Roasted malt dominates the flavor, with the sourness and hops as background. Only the sourness lingers in the palate, which is quite smooth.

Brown-red color, light bodied, nice mix of chocolate malt with hops, some lingering bitterness, alcohol may or may not be in here; overall, pretty good.

Wonderful treat found outside San Francisco despite what the press release says. Rich malty and sweet without being cloying. Perfect balance of bitterness to accentuate the chocolate toasy malt flavors. If you like malt, this is the beer for you.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours dark reddish-brown with minimal head. Very sweet raisin aroma with a hint of chocolate. A nice balanced malt flavor with bitterness at the end. Nothing bad to really say about this one, it was a pleasant surprise. Anchor brewing company continues to impress me with their solid offerings.
