May 28, 2008 On tap at the Escanaba brewpub. Crystal clear deep red amber, with a rim of white above. No aroma. I can’t pull anything
off. Flavor. This is boring. A meaty, chewy old malt flavor climbs out of this one. Too much
crystal, too much meat. No real malt intricacy and no hops to balance this off. Some
too-warm yeast esters kick off a bit of gross twinge to the finish of the beer. Not entirely
clean.

Apr 16, 2008 Crap was this bad. If this was in a bottle it would have been a drainpour. Nothing stood out with this beer. I literally put my beak into the liquid and inhaled and couldn’t pick up an aroma. The pour was a flat bubbleless orange with no head. Taste was weak and unexciting. I could taste a hint of biscuit and light malt with an earthiness to it, but it was so diluted I had to dig deep to pull that out of it. Terrible.

Jan 5, 2008 Pours a deep red / amber with an off-white head. I got a decent amount of fruitness and caramel in the aroma. A lot of sweetness of caramel with just a touch of hops to balance it out. Finished really dry, as with most beers from this place.

Dec 28, 2007 12/27/07 - Winter Road Trip ’07 - Draft sample at brewpub. Clear red w/ off white head, nice lacing. Sweet malt nose, caramel and fresh baked bread. May be some fruity yeast esters. Pretty big malt character, caramel and bread, leading to a dry, hop finish, floral and a touch of bitter. This is a decent offering.
