07.12.05 Tap at brewpub. Paler honey amber, small but creamy off-white head. Fairly earthy, a touch over oxidized with a tinge of metal. Lifeless body, sweet and watery. Alas, I’ve had worse in far less attractive surroundings.

On tap at the Great Adirondack Steak and Seafood Co. Served an amber color with a good head that slowly faded to some lacing. Mild aroma of malt & grain. Malt with some caramel sweetness. Had a light bitter finish.
Medium body & clean. Nothing fancy. Nice brew, worth a try. Really went well with my dinner.

Pours a clear amber color with no head. Aroma of caramel and toasted malts. Flavor is mostly caramel and toasted malts with a touch of hops. Decent beer though not impressive.
2.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Tap at Pony Bar. Amber pour with a thin head. The nose is lightly caramelly and toasty with a fairly typical unassertive toastiness. There is a really unpleasant chlorine note that I can’t pin down to either the beer or the glass. Light herbal hopping with a weak dusty finish. Meh… not much to write about here.

10th to rate this.. making or breaking this sucker. On tap @ Brewpub sampled both on nitro and carbon. The regular carbon dioxide was a better match for this ale. However, not much going on besides caramel malts. Pretty boring, thin, and uninspired.

not my favorite style admitedly, but I found this beer to be lackluster, and not overly flavorful. Aroma was non existent, malt dominated taste with some noble hops thrown in there for a somewhat earthy flavor. Eh.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
on tap-pours a creamy light tan head with copper color. Aroma is funky malt, hops, nice. Taste is caramel, roasty malt, hops with a slight bite. Nice. Good carbonation.

Verre de dégustation à la brasserie après une journée de randonnée sur le mont Ampersand. Arôme: Odeur de céréales et de caramel. Apparence: La couleur est ambrée avec une faible densité de bulle. Présence d’un mince col mousseux et d’une fine dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Goût de caramel avec une pointe de torréfaction. Durée moyenne de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps et la texture sont mince. Faible effervescence en bouche. Légère présence de caramel en arrière goût. (Rating #549)

(Draught) Sampled at the Central New York Brewfest in Syracuse on February 4, 2006. Thin, almond head atop a copper body. Nose of roasted malt and grassy. Flavours of caramel malt, Kent Golding hops, dough and a touch of maple. Good stuff.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
4 oz. sample. Clear copper pour with a thin film. Malty aroma, roastiness. Smooth, roasted malt flavors, biscuity. Mildly hoppy, really nice balance. Some sweetness, decent red beer. Available also via nitro pour...I find a distinct metallic taste in the nitro sample. Other characteristics are very similar.
