On tap at Gordon BierschThis beer pours a deep amber color with a thin white head. The aromas are bread, old church. The mouthfeel is watery and bland with a medium body. Cheers!

On tap during 2011 Denver Brew at the Zoo. Clear light orange/copper, no head. Aroma of caramalt and toffee, biscuit, and other sweet maltiness. Taste was same. Caramel covered biscuit, light toast...smooth and crisp and fitting with the style on a slight sweet side.

Out of bottle smells of chocolate and a hint of coffee, tastes the same its not over powering and then its tastes like water after 3 seconds in your mouth. all and all its good for when the flavor is there

Most of their beers are really light. This one got lost in the mix. Nothing special and doesn’t contain any distinctive characteristics that make it stand out. A bit sweeter with a touch of caramel at the finish.

Tap. Two and a half fingers of creamy foamy eggshell head. Ambery clear copper body. Light caramel, raisin, and earthy aromas. On the sweeter side of things for the flavor: bready, raisins, sweet fruits. Watery body at points which was a turn off.

Atlanta locale - Light amber very little head. Toasted malt nose, quite prominent malt combines with crisp hop bitterness. Malt is clean and finishes clean. Preferred over their lighter offerings.

Copper-colored with little head. Sweet malty nose. Smooth entry with a mildly carbonated mouthfeel and a sweet finish with overripe banana, dates, vanilla, and slightly bitter notes.

Draft. Pours amber with a minimal off white head. Smells is a little earthy with some malts. Taste is initially bitter, but more of a sour bitter that leads to a nice crisp finish. There is some maltiness and some biscuit, but overall a fairly uninspiring beer. A little refreshing, but thats it.

Poured clear copper with a decent head. Some sweet malts and bitterness, but not well balanced. An ok beer.
