| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 11, 2009 Bottle thanks to Matt7215. Pours a deep thin brown with medium off-white head. Aroma of roasted malt, caramel, and some dried dark fruits. Flavor matches with the addition of a bit of sweetness. It also has that Grand River character that seems to be in all of their brews. Not sure if it is their water, yeast, or what, but they all have this certain metallic character to it. Not a bad character, but something I could definitely distinguish any of their brews with.
