Draft at both Capitol City location the weekend of November 12th and 13th. Was waiting to hear back regarding this beer and head brewer Mike McCarthy responded today. Thanks Mike! Comes out a rusty, murky amber. Nose is spice and yeast with fruits notes and a bit of tartness. Some light candied notes as well. Taste is spicy and tart with some citrus notes, yeast, a nice spice profile and a bit of light bitterness (this seemed to come out a bit more at the Downtown location moreso than Capitol Hill). Body is medium with moderate carbonation. Finishes with more spiciness, lots of fruit (both dried and candied), yeast, and dried malts. Not bad!
