On tap at Oldsmar Taphouse. Reddish brown pour. Nose is fruits and malts with light hops. Flavor starts with sweet fruits but finishes with a hoppy bite. Not overly bitter, has a slightly metallic finish. Decent beer, nothing exceptional.

Ibrew2or3 (4985) - Phoenix, Arizona, USA - APR 29, 2010
On tap at the Oldsmar Tap House pouring up deep mahogany with ruby edges and tan head. The aroma is mild and emits dark fruitiness like cherries as well as a touch of medicinal booze. The taste is pretty darn rich with cherry, plums and prune dark fruitiness. Then midway and into the finish I get mild roasted malts and some malt sweetness and caramel joining the show.
