Sep 4, 2008 Much sweeter than expected...malt dominates the flavor profile and I guess I would have wanted some bitter, resinous hops to balance it out. Not too upset that this isn’t regularly available in the area.

Sep 2, 2008 A lot going on with this one, but something isn’t right. Strong malt with a bitterness that tastes a lot stronger than the listed 25 ibus. Not enough hop flavor, not a fan of this one.

Jul 27, 2008 Pours dark brown with fraothy tan head. Aroma is nutty and molases. Flavor rather plain, sweet caramel, but of alcohol undertone, but not much character. Nice attempt.

Jul 15, 2008 Brought back in a suitcase from Seattle. While I didn’t enjoy sitting in the brewpub, this ale is not bad from the bottle. Not intense like other American Strongs, but ok malts over all. Dark. Decent taste.

Jun 18, 2008 Tap Reddish brown color with a small off-white head. Sweet aromas of brown sugar and malts. Sweet flavors accompany this as well as a slight bitter flavor akin to an ESB. Pretty mild for an American Strong Ale. Not bad though - it’s not as sweet as you would expect from the aroma.
