dpjuart (555), Indiana, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 27, 2007 Rated 10/30/07 - Draft at Brewpub. Nice red-amber color, small off-white head. Nice malty nose, carmel and toffe, biscuit and bread. Slight touch of floral hops. Good malt character w/ nice crisp hop finish. Carmel is prevelant. raphael (259), Portland, Oregon, USA Nov 13, 2007 on tap-- caramel, toast and honey. clear color with a solid head. lighter texture than expected, slight hop edge. stays away from cloying but not enough diversity to tyhe malt mtoast (283), City of Rust, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 27, 2007 On tap 10/25/07 as part of a sampler rack. Deep amber with short lived white foam, no lacing. Aroma is almost banana bread like, a bit too much banana for me. Flavor had some more plantain-ness and was a bit too sweet, needs some balance. Linus_Stick (1526), Moon Township, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 24, 2007 On tap at Marzonis in Allison Park. Wow! After 6 of their beers I was sure I wouldn’t find one that stuck out. This one did and then some! Pour was darker than any O/M than I’ve ever head. Dark brown with a tan 2 finger head. Aroma was decent but not strong. Caramel and malt in the background. Now the taste is what makes this different. There is a deep roastiness to this beer that make it different. There is caramel in the front and a nice smoky malty film going down the throat in the aftertaste. More complex than any O/M I’ve had. Beerman6686 (707), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 10, 2007 Most definitely not a great beer, but not bad for the style, at least in my opinion because in not a big fan or the style.
