Barrel Draught from the jug at the GABF, Colorado Convention Center 01/10/2005 Golden coloured with some hop and spice aromas. Dry banana flavour finish.

12oz bottle-pours an offwhite head with amber color. Aroma is medium malt-caramel, apple. Taste is hop bite, medium malt-caramel, apple.

12oz bottle acquired in trade with robertsreality (thanks!). Poured a medium and hazy amber color with an averaged sized off white head. Aromas of bread, citrus, and grain. Tastes of caramel, citrus, and some roast.

Draft at Axel,s MSP airport. Pourd clear amber color with an average frothy white head that mostly diminished with fair lacing. Medium sweet toasted malt aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture with soft carbonation. Medium sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of short to moderate duration. Another average beer.

Pours a transparent copper orange with a nice, frothy off-white head. Toasted sugary caramel malty aroma has a touch of grainy Vienna malt and subtle lager yeast. Body starts with a pleasant malty sweetness revealing some earthy noble hoppy bitterness toward a smooth, bittersweet toasty finish. Fairly well-balanced and true to style, just not all that interesting.

Bottle courtesy of Dalzale. Pours copper with a white head. Smells of citrus, some caramel, roses. Tastes of citrus and peppery with a light floral finish.

Nice malt and balance with carbonation. Nice copper head. Drinkable, good example of type as not too sweet.
