General_Gao (2480), Iowa City, Iowa, USA Jul 10, 2006 Nitro draught at the brewpub. Clear ruby color with foamy nitro head that laced the glass. Dominating, distinct malty caramel aroma accented by sweet cream. The caramel came out again in the flavor along with subdued cherry candy and a touch of smoke. Very tasty. maltdog (414), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA May 19, 2005 Sample at Dad Watson’s. Fairly clear amber, light tan head, very good lacing. Aromas of biscuits and honey. Crackerlike flavor with musty cellar and peaches. Light palate. Mild bitter finsih and minerally aftertaste. acrdz (4285), Boulder, Colorado, USA Aug 11, 2004 Sampled @ Oak Hills Brewpub. Clear dark red. Sweet cherry wood nose, light body with a smooth and sweet scotch, berry and a little dry and starchy finish. BückDich (4540), Boise, Idaho, USA Jul 10, 2004 Tap @ Oake Hills McMens Huge creamy off-white head & sheets of lacing. The aroma has some earthy hops & some noticable smoke. The flavor is creamy with some light beechwood smoke & other base malts, light fruity bitterness. Rolls over the tongue. To compare to Schlenkerla it’s about 20% of the smoke level.
