On tap at Brewpub. Copper colored with a small white head. Aroma is modest...decent level of hops, caramel malts, and some dark fruit notes. Flavor is malty up front...and changes to a bit of bitter hops, but no strong rides in either direction. Palate was good...fairly light, but not offensive and watery, and thus easy to drink. After a couple of visits here, it seems as though this brewpub kicks out solid, if not overwhelming beers, that are geared to cater to the average beer drinker wanting to try something new and not becoming overwhelmed in the process...and I’m cool with that!

Taster on tap at brewpub. Light in color with a large white head. Aroma had lots of fruit, particularly apple. The taste followed sweet fruits, fairly light bodied and lots of carbonation. Something enjoyable, but glad I only got a taster.

On tap at GRBC.. red body, medium white head. caramely and fruity aroma. flavor is similar with caramels and dark fruits...not a bad addition to their beers
