Tap. Nice dark ale, coffee colored head with great lacing. Malty goodness with great mouthfeel. This is my second sampling of King’s but it’s my fav. so far.

Poured a dark brown with small tan head. Sweet malty aroma. Nice roasted malt flavor with a little bit of hops thrown in. Very easy drinking.

Nice head and good lace, this tap beer was a very pleasant surprise. I was tagging along on a ’girls night out’ and the bar maid was so concerned I wouldn’t like it she insisted on my trying a sample before buying a pint. I was very happy with it and look forward to going back. Smooth taste, with the right level of malt and a touch of hops in the background. More please!

Very good beer and the main brew for my ’retirement’ party this coming friday. It’s no Boynr River brown, but it’s rich and tasty stuff.

Yet another solid Michigan brown ale. This one is hugely malty, big and round and full on the tongue like a nicely played, drawn out note from a french horn. It rolls toward being too sweet, but now and then the hops nudge it back in line so it never gets cloying. I discovered this brewery only recently, though it’s just 6 miles from my house, and now I’m moving hundreds of miles north. Sigh.
