COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Nitrogen-tapped from specially-designed faucets, imparting a distinctive smoothness. The malt & hops balance out house yeast’s fruity character for a silky, easy-drinking beer.

A dark red beer with an aroma reminiscent of candy. As promised, the flavor is of candied apples. Average.

Very disappointed in this brew, a little watery, not a whole lot of body to the beer, smooth, good balance, very drinkable, but kind of disappointed
