pint, at Tylers Apex. Good aroma, sweet. Caramel, fruity (berry, orange) cardboard. Orangy brown color, small head that faded quick, no lace. Bitter flavor, like aroma, with what I call cardboard mellowing the other characteristics. Medium body, creamy mouthfeel, bitter dry finish. Nice brew, easy to drink. Aroma was best part. I sniffed a while before sniffing, flavor was a bit more subdued.

Jun 25, 2008 Draught. Pours dark brown, with off-white head. Aroma is very malty, chocolate and caramel. Flavor is also malty. Soft mouth feel, bitter at the end, but very sweet up to that point.
