Commercial Description:
An American-style lager that is sweet and malty. Brewed with German malt and hops, this lager is full bodied with soft malt flavors and subtle hop character.

This dark lager pours reddish and offers a nice feeling of sweet malt. This malt then gives way to the hops that allow for a nice crisp balanced finish.

Sample from tap at the brewpub in Canal street. Pours red with a light brown/off-white head. Toffee caramel malty aroma. Flavour is malty, slight yeasty, minor metallic note. Good hoppiness blending in with the toffee malt.

Sample at Beer Works Fenway: Pours a clear light amber color with a thin light khaki head that dissipates rapidly. Spotty lacing. Aroma of crystal malts and a bit of hops. Light body with a sweet malt flavor offset by hops. The finish is creamy and sweet with not much aftertaste. Overall I am firmly in the "Where’s the fire?" column.

(Canal St. Location) Camamel flavors. Very sweet tasting. Hops blended in. Not 9-alarmy at all... not on fire, certainly. Very relaxing. Light copper color.
