a lager-ale, sweet malts with an ale hoppy like the IPA. Tiny dancer on the tongue, slight metallic aftertaste. wonderful dark copper color with soft carbonation. Had on draft at Arcadia brew pub next door to Kellogg Cereal City.

22 oz. bottle - pours cloudy, burnt orange with thin off-white head; aromas are a rich mixture of dank fruit, sugar and dry malts; smooth drinking but with an odd aftertaste; mainly fruit, prunes and sugars in the flavors; a little caramel too; texture on the thin side and just a little off overall

Pours a two finger cream head that fades quickly to a thin layer leaving some lace. Almost clear amber color. Good carbonation and medium-heavy bodied. Raisin nose. Flavor is sweet, fruity and a little medicinal, the bitterness balances. $6.99 for a 22oz bottle from Yankee Spirits South Attleboro, Ma.

Bottle. A amber beer with a big whith head. The aroma is of caramel, floral hops/citrus. The taste is much the same, quit plesant. Medium body with a bitter dry finish.

Bomber rating. Pour is a caramel hue with a thin but retaining off white head. Aroma is of sour apple, caramel, and some citrus hops. A little on the thin side in the flavor department, yet highly drinkable. Tart, but also with some malt backbone. Nothing spectacular, but somewhat unique. I probably won’t purchase this again, yet I’m still glad I tried it once.

Hoppy aroma with a good balance of malt. The flavor is also hoppy with notes of citrus.
