(On tap) Pronounced darkish brown colour, nice slightly burned malt character and a good hoppiness (which turns out to be a house characteristica). Very typical fruity/flowery notes. More akin to a Brown Ale I’d say. 5,5% ABV

<i>Draught at the brewpub, Radio City</i><br />Dark amber color with red hue. Some caramel aroma. Medium body, a lot of dark caramel taste, maybe too much ending bitterness from the roasted malts.

<i>Draught&#64;Heartland Pub, Union Square, NYC</i><br /> Dark nut brown color, beige head. Roasted malty, a bit caramelly nose. Light palate. Toasted malty with caramel sweetness. Light to medium bodied. Ok session amber ale.

On tap at the Radio City location. Poured a medium to dark copper color with a smaller sized off white head. Aromas of toffee, caramel, and nuts. Tastes of caramel and nuts. Light lacing left on the glass.

On tap at the Union Square location on 9/15/07: Pours a transparent dark copper mahogany with a clingy-lacing light tan head. Aroma of sweet doughy caramel malt and some light fruity esters. Body starts fairly full with a touch of sticky caramel malt balance with slightly piny bittering hops and a hint of tart light fruits toward a faintly sweet finish.
