Sampled at the brewpub. This must have been brought back from retirement. Pretty much clear and copper brown. A small beige head. This offers rich malts typical of the style. Softer hops are dry and add more bitterness and character than flavor. Perhaps some noble hops have been added but not a lot. A bit of maple syrup or brown sugar is tasted late.

Draft @ Hereford & Hops brewpub. Clear dark amber - reddish colour, small off-white ehad. Aroma is sour malty, caramel. Flavour is sour malts, caramel, fruity. Slightly sweet and dry finish.

UPDATED: AUG 27, 2007 Sampled on draft at the Cranberry Twp PA location this beer poured a medium amber color with a small white head. The aroma is sweet and malty with a hint of fruit. The flavor is sweet and nutty with a hint of molasses and ripe fruits. The flavor is reasonably pleasant but a bit faint. Very smooth though.
