3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Draft… Clear burnt-caramel ale with a small, creamy, lightly-tanned head that quickly dissipates. The aroma is a malty swirl of milk chocolate, praline and caramel. Medium to full-bodied and mildly creamy with modest carbonation. The malty flavor leans slightly sweet, offering cocoa, toasted nuts, caramel and a delicate citrus peel facet that is barely noticeable. Finishes nutty, lightly fruity and mildly sweet.

Tap at Flix. The look is very clear, the color of watered down cola, thin off white head. The smell is spice, cola, cinnamon, veggies, and fruit. The taste is nice, good contrasts from sweet chocolate to spices, and interesting.

On tap at the brewery. Brown color and very clear. Not much carbonation. The aroma is malty with a bit of chocolate. The flavor is malty and just a bit sweet. The chocolate is not that obvious. Maybe the orange peel is a bit more noticeable. Not very hoppy. Overall the flavors meld together into a smooth, enjoyable beer. The alcohol is not very obvious so it goes down easy. Good beer.

On tap at the brewpub.
The beer pours a clear, light brown color with a small tan head. The aroma has some nice toffee and chocolate notes to it, with a little bit of citrus mixed in.
The flavor is similar. I get some nice light cocoa notes, as well as some orange citrus and toffee. The alcohol is well hidden, with the beer tasting more like a 4-5 percent brown ale.
Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.
