On Tap - Carolina Beer Co. Brewpub - Charlotte Airport. Medium copper pour, tight khaki colored head. Neutral aroma - hints of fresh lake water. Flavor has some caramel notes, some topsoil, a bit of bitter chocolate. Decently thick mouthfeel. Not bad at all - hit the spot after a long day of travel. First online rating of a beer in a brewpub while I am actually drinking it.

Tasted on a recent visit to Woods on South in Charlotte, NC. Pours a dark brown with a thin tan head. Aroma is faint, maybe some notes of ripe fruit and barley. Flavor is somewhat malty, maybe some hints of chocolate. Medium-bodied with slight bitterness on finish.

(Bottle, courtesy of travita) Pours a mahogany body with a small beige head. Aroma of raisins, grape juice, toasted malt, and light smoke. Flavor of light smoke, chocolate, caramel and roasted malt.

Looks like a stout, drinks much lighter. Served to a group of people who almost only drink Miller Lite. figured I would have to switch away, but they all liked it and drank it all night. A good, quality beer with depth that you can drink even when you want to have more than just a few.

Reddish color clear ok head. Smell is toasty, malty with darker malts, and sweet. Taste is light, toast, and malts. A little watery and thin.
