3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
My thanks to Kevin for this beer. This is good. Aroma has nuts, caramel, and toast. Light amber color, though the roasted character in the flavor makes this more of an alt than a amber ale. Very light hops, and lots of roasted, dry grain. Dry finish.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Bottle. Tawny iced tea body with a patchy film of bubbles and a medium ring of bubbles. Nose-malty like a brown ale. Taste-light cigarette smoke, light chocolate powder, light toffee, very light fruit esters, overall powdery tasting, but in a good way. Great combo of roast, powdered chocolate, and esters. Leaves a beautiful lingering aftertaste.
2.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle. Strong malt aroma with maple syrup notes. Lightly hazy amber color with moderate head. Sweet, metallic malt flavor. Mild hops and strong metallic aftertaste. Tastes okay but metallic taste not pleasant.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
I couldn’t believe this was supposed to be an altbier when i had it at the Louisville airport on tap. No mouthfeel to speak of, high level of carbonation and not a whole lot of flavor. Barely passable.
2.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Pours with a nice head, diminishing. Body is a hazy dark brown. Appealing nose of brown sugar, light fruity hops. Palate is nutty, slighly dry, hints of metallics. Very very thin bodied. Finish has some toasted malt character, very faint. Thanks Kevin!
2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Plain malty beer. This is to Alt what R.C. Cola is to Coca-Cola...a cheap immitation. A little flat, a little metallic, a little caramelly. But not much of anything. Thanks Kevin for bringing the bottle from Kentucky.
2.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Sampled at the music city brewers festival. Man, I had to snort this thing to get some aroma, which was a very faint yeast and malt. Pours brown with a white head. Flavor of bread, fruit cake, caramel, brown sugar. Very mild finish. This was not that bad, my score is a tad misleading. But again, this was rather boring and uninteresting. This brewery has better beers to offer.
