dark ruby, whispy beige head, sweet butterscotch candy aroma, lots of butterscotch flavor, light touch of chocolate, almost a chocolate and butterscotch candy, is this intentional?

Aug 10, 2004 Updated: Jan 23, 2007A smooth, burnt malty flavor that goes down smoothly and leaves a clean after taste... this is what I look for in a dark lager. The aroma is subtle with just a hint of sweetness. This was a most pleasant surprise that I received from a beer club and, if it was available locally, I would keep a regular supply on hand.

Jun 20, 2005 Harrisburg Beer Festival 2... Draft... The woman at the Penn Brewing Company’s serving station was bitchy. She couldn’t understand why I needed her to rinse out my tasting glass before the pour and gave me hell about it. So much for these festivals being a way to mingle with beer drinkers and attract more of us to one’s line of beers. I was hoping for something great out of this one so I could show how non-biased my rating would be after the incident... not to be. The brew was thin, watery and nondescript. Even when I let it warm, I got nothing out of it. It wasn’t offensive, just tasted like a dark Coors light. Maybe a whisper of chocolate in the nose... maybe I’m reaching. Next beer please!
