Malty thick yeasty aroma. Hints of caramel. A little thin, but still pleasant on the palette. Fairly dry, malty flavor. Overall not a very bold beer, but very drinkable.

This was a very good beer. Has a great, complex flavor that goes down smoothly.

6/30/07 On Draught at the Seattle International Beerfest. Aroma is Sweet caramel malt forward. Appearance is clean, dark copper with an off-white head. Flavor is sweet malt forward with lots of caramel. Bittering is light with light sourness, oakiness, and alcohol. Mouthfeel is light bodied, crisp, very cleanly made. Overall, an easy drinking brew that does taste freshly made.

Draft. Aroma: Lightly sweet roasted malt with notes of brown sugar, bread, and chocolate. Appearance: Dark brown in color and clear. Light khaki head was small and frothy with fair retention. Not much lacing. Flavor: German malt with notes of brown sugar, bread, toasted nuts, and chocolate. Medium-dry finish with some malt flavor carrying over. Palate: Medium bodied. moderate-low carbonation. Overall: This was the first beer I ordered of the night (to try it) and ended up being my beer for the whole session. Nice flavor and easy to drink.

Sold in a green bottle, but was not the least bit skunky. The aroma was of lightly roasted malts, hops, and was a little beefy. Tea coliored pour with a thin off white head. Relatively weak flavor with some hops and roasted grains detectable. Uncooked pasta finish ringed with some lower quality hops, very subdued though.

Clear dark brown color, fading head and no perceptible carbonation - average overall look. Malt aroma, wheat with suagary level of molases - think Mrs. Buttersworth. Thick palate and flat taste makes for a sweet sugary flavor like a pancake syrup coupled with alcohol. Hop flavoring is there but doesn’t overcome that maple. So overall its thick sweet and ultimately unenjoyable. Pass on this.

yeasty a bit grassy and somewhat dark. has been that way for a while. sickly sweet and ungenuine tasting. refreshing yet subdued. good burps! drinkeable for sure but left behind in the world of new beers.

Pours a clear-brown with a very foamy head. Aroma has hints of nuts, it’s a bit earthy...wish it were stronger. Initial flavor is malty with a nice roasted flavor to it. The finish leaves a bit to be desired. There’s a lingering bitterness on the tongue that isn’t altogether unpleasant. Good middle-of-the-road beer. If it were available, I’d stock up for rainy days.
