Enjoyed this one. Pours a clear, dark copper, with minimal head. Roasted grain aroma. Flavor is a roasted grain/malt with some hop notes underneath. Seems like a good winter warmer kind of beer--something to drink around the fireplace.

Is it an am-strong, amber, or DIPA.. Aroma is heavy grassy hops, caramel, leaves, berries. Taste is more citrus and grassy hops with medium sweetness and maltiness. Pretty nicely balanced beer.

Pours with a beautiful amber colour. Persistent head and hoppy smell. Hoppy and spicy flavour which mellows the more you drink it.

3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 vikingguy (621) - Chaska, Minnesota, USA - DEC 1, 2012
Cloudy amber color with foamy off-white head. Fresh hops and caramel malt on the nose. Taste - Rich caramel malt, brown sugar, molasses, balaned by a hefty grassy bitterness. Long bitter aftertaste. I’m not sure what to think of this...kind of a sweet belgian meets an American IPA. It’s good for sure, but it’s not great for me.

Great beer; although I can't say it's one of my favorites from Great Lakes(they have too many other greats). There is a strong hop presence but it is expertly balanced so the hop "bite" is mellowed out in the finish.

12oz Bottle. Appearance is reddish-brown color with medium, off-white head. Aroma is fruity, sweet, caramel, and pine. Taste is sweet with flavors of sour fruit, caramel, some pine hops. Strong bitterness for a red ale. Palate is medium bodied, very smooth texture, average carbonation, and a dry finish.
