(On tap) Warm, dark amber colour with a creamy, off-white head leaving laces. Weak aroma of roasted malt. Medium body with lightly sweet malts. In spite of an underlying sweetness the beer ends dry. 270307

The body was pretty mahogany with a yellowish khaki head. The aroma was malty with walnuts and caramel candy. The taste was sweet with hazelnuts. A stewed tea finish hurts the overall package.

Red amber ale, with a nice balance of hops and malts in aroma. Very pleasant hops and citrus, lacks a bit in malts. Still good bodied. (June 2004).

Draught at the brewpub. Clear amber color with off white head that laced the glass. Coppery metallic aroma which was not unattractive, but didn’t really draw me in. Despite this, the flavor was very nice; spicy, nutty, and a bit roasty. All in all not bad.

Draft. Amber color with an off-white head. Roasty malt flavor with a few bittering hops (but not much).
