3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
On tap at Onion Creek.
The beer pours a copper color with a white head. The aroma is very malty with a lot of toffee and caramel notes. The flavor is more of the same, with some large toffee notes. I also get a little bit of grass and some caramel malt, but this thing is a toffee bomb. Easy to drink and refreshing. Thin to medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.

Tap at Flying Saucer, Sugar Land.
Pours a glassy amber with a nose of honey and gingerbread. (?) Flavor is light gingerbread (?), nutmeg, and roasted malt. Average mouthfeel. I know it wasn’t the gingerbread stout but it sure had some gingerbread in it. Not bad.

On tap at Liberty Station. Pours a clear copper with a small off white head leaving sticky lacing. The aroma is bready malt and caramel. Thin mouthfeel with a sweet malt and light roast. A good ESB from Buffalo Bayou.

Pours a golden color with an orange tinge and nice soft white head. Light floral aroma. Moderately sweet and balanced hop-floral bitterness. Quite soft and enjoyable.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Tap at Flying Saucer. Clear orange-copper with a fluffy off-white head. Aroma fairly typical of a bitter, but less biscuity and more caramel. Taste is mild bitterness balanced by semi-sweet caramel and biscuit malts. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Nice and refreshing session beer. Not bad for Buffalo Bayou’s first release.

Draft at Hay Merchant. Bright copper and clear. Little head and nose. Taste is very malty with a slight bitter hop profile. Good body and lingering flavor. Ok.

On tap at Porch Swing. Server described it as "a copper ale" and I can’t argue with that. Malty with light bitterness. Good enough that we ordered a second pitcher.

The aroma is mostly grainy, with cereal and a bit of nuts, as well as minor floral undertones. The taste is mild and mirrors the aroma closely, with discreet bitterness and a touch of caramel sweetness. Light-to-medium mouthfeel with generous carbonation.

Tried this on tap at The Flying Saucer in Houston, TX. Malty flavor with a slight hoppiness, mild caramel and toffee notes. Slightly sweet finish.
