Rusted_Halo (11), USA Feb 26, 2008 Updated: Mar 26, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours a delightful muted ruby, thick and cloudy. Aroma is nothing special; grains and cereals with the slightest hint of fruit (apple probably). Flavor is acceptable, but not great. Malts are nondescript, and the beer is very bready overall. Mouthfeel is quite good, lively at first taste fading into a dry finish. Not the best New Glarus beer by far, but not bad.
Jmichael (582), Asheville, North Carolina, USA Sep 8, 2008 pours an amber copper with white head, sugar sweet malt aroma, smooth palate, mild candy background, dry finish. riversideAK (1649), Shoreline, Washington, USA Jul 8, 2008 Pours a dark amber brown with a nice lasting head. Aroma of some caramel, roast, chocolate, and some German styled hop presence. The flavor is light and sweet with caramel and chocolate, a slight vegetal pops through to me. Or something that was just a little seemingly off. More dark malts, a nice light spice from the hops and a light bitter/crisp finish. Interesting, but I don’t know if I am digging it all that much. Dorwart (1621), Robbinsville, New Jersey, USA Jun 13, 2008 Large off-white head of fine bubbles. Settles slowly and leaves a thick doily of lacing down the glass. Light roasted malts and some dry bitterness. Some crusty bread also. Color is a nice mahagony brown. Flavor is lightly bitter with some spices and roasted grains. Pretty generic. Finishes bitter with a bit of tartness that is making my m

Clear dark red brown with a watery ivory white head and good rings of lacing. Smell is sweet bread. Freshly baked cinnamon bread flavor. Very nice, unique and drinkable. Medium to high carbonation. Smooth and has a solid interesting flavor. KingpinIPA (817), Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA May 26, 2008 Copper color. Smell of malt, spice, hops and fruit. Taste of hops, copper, malt and a splash of dark fruit.
