Commercial Description:
A stupendous Midland Mild Ale whose epic malt infused acts of sweet caramel sensations leave all who pour it speechless. Its roasted notes of sun soaked grain are appearing in the Summer Variety Show in a not to be missed engagement. Brewed with Belgian Candi Sugar.

On-tap at the brewery. Dark colour with soapy mocha head. Licorice aroma, rather plain. Similar to a porter. The rauch is very understated.

On tap at Max’s in B-more. Hazy gold and disappearing white head. Faint, tangy, cidery nose, lemon-citrus notes. Wheaty-sour, cidery flavor with some citric, lime-peel bitterness. Off-putting reminders of tequila. Refreshing though.

Dark amber pour with just a touch of head. Taste like watered down stout or something. Very watered down. Anyway I have yet to be impressed by any of this company’s offerings

This amber brown pour has a nice frothy off white head. It smells like caramel malt and a little bit of toast. It is light and sweet in flavor. It is nice and smooth.

From the Summer sampler pack that I picked up across the Indiana border in New Buffalo, Michigan. Bottle pours a black with a nice little head that fades in about 2 minutes. Smells of chocolate. Old Black Joe’s still picking cotton. Nice aroma. Initial taste is nice, but washes away like filthy water. A beer full of chicanery. I dig it.
