4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
On tap at Resi’s in Chicago. After many different glasses during a couple of weekends this was by far the favorite beer. Pours a medium caramel color with a nice off- white head. Aroma of caramel malts, rain fresh hops, slight yeast. Moderate sweet taste, caramel, with a compensating bitter hop follow. Very nice and my favorite at Resi’s.

Tap at Laschet’s. Very bock-like in taste. Malty and sweet. Some darkness pushing through, but tasty. Definitely had a sort of primal taste to it. Very much an alt in character.
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Lovely copper color with a nice large white head. Nose is predominately of a light caramel maltiness. Flavor is fairly light, dominated by a moderately sweet caramel flavor, with a good dose of bitterness as well. Had it at the same spot as Muzzlehatch, oddly enough.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Dark brown black, filtered, some fizzy whitish head. Nose is roast, some sweet malts, and bittering hops. Taste is much of the same. Nice hint of nuttiness and spice at the end. Finishes clean and crisp. Sessionable.

On tap at Laschet’s Inn
I had the choice of getting this in a liter of half liter. I chose the half in case I wanted a different brew.
It had a real nice head that had some nice lacing when it went away
Very nice smell. Malty and a little sweet. The beer was an amber color. But it was definitely a dark beer.
Real nice taste it was sweet a little nutty. But very refreshing. it was sweeter than I expected but the roasted maltyness balanced it out very well. I liked this alt beers. It was exactly what I wanted. So I got another half liter. I should of got a liter at first, but who cares?
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
On tap. Pours a moderate brown with a small off white head. Aroma is malty, grainy with a bread note to it, slight y fruitiness. Flavor is much the same, very drinkable and soft grain character, easy drinking and a nice soft bready note. FInishes a touch crisp but smooth. Medium body and a soft carbonation. Decent beer
3.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Enjoyed on draft at Resi’s Bierstube in Chicago. Aroma isn’t very apparent, if anything its slightly malty. Its dark out here, so I can’t really assess appearance. Taste wise its great, nice and malty with a great creamy texture.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
On tap at Resi’s Bierstube, Chicago. Clear medium-brown body, medium lasting head. Slight butterscotch in the malty aroma, perhaps hints of nuts and vanilla as well. Flavor follows very similar to the nose, very smooth with a medium body and the aforementioned sweet flavor notes. MMM good.
