poured from tap. Reddish copper with a lite tannish head and filtered. Aromas of slight roastedness , light hop, and malt. Flavors of roastedness and a little malt character. Slight lace left in glass. Decent beer.

Sample at the Gaylord location: This brew is a reddish-amber color with a thin off-white head that dissipates quickly. Spotty lacing. Toasted malt aroma. Medium body with a pretty standard malt flavor and not much else. The finish is soft and malty, with a lingering bitterness afterward. So-so.

On tap at the Gaylord (MI) location. Slightly hazy amber body, medium off-white/light tan head. Light cerealy aroma, with toast and grape. Toasty body with a sweet, cerealy finish, grassy with sweetness imparted by Munich malts. Earthy.

5 oz draught sample at the Gaylord, MI location, July 2006. Dark amber with a touch of retained head and a bit of lacing....toasty malty-sweet nose offers a bit of baked apple as it warms....dry and rather dull body, a bit of cidery sweet-tartness as you go through it but really very little to glom onto. Words fail me as the beer did....
