Draft a Seven Bridges. Poured a auburn color with a moderate frothy white head that diminished quickly. Average sweet malty aroma. Light to medium body with a thin texture. Same sweet malty flavor with little bitter finish of short duration. Many better brews from this location.

On tap at their Disney Boardwalk location. Pours a beautiful dark copper that sparkles in the sun with a light, but long lasting white head. No real apparent aroma - hints of fresh lake water. Bold flavor with hints of mint, chocololate, and traces of horehound candy. Very earthy. Mouthfeel is decently thick for the style but it metallicizes in the end to knock it down a notch.

On tap at Disney World location. Pours a golden amber orange with an off white head. Aroma of light roasted malts and caramel. Flavor of roasty malts and some cocoa.

Virtually no aroma, what was there was mild citrus, peat and brown sugar. Tannic, dry, nutty and made with quality malt. Mildly hopped, medium finish. Palate was a bit watery, and it needed a bit more fizz and kick.
