Oct 8, 2007 Draft sample at Back Road Fall Fest 2007. Poured clear amber color with an average frothy white head that mostly lasted with fair. Moderate toasted sweet malty aroma. Medium body with soft carbonation. Medium sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of short duration. My expectations where met with this brew.

Oct 3, 2007 From the tap this pours a clear golden amber with a modest off-white head with minimal lacing. The aroma is mildly sweet, toasted grains with a touch of caramel and a very slight hop bitterness. Some alcohol enteres into the flavor, the caramel is more pronounced, and the hops take on an earthy quality. Not bad. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Places/ShowPlace.asp?PlaceID=4970> Shoreline Brewery, Michigan City, IN<font size=-1>

Sep 30, 2007 On tap at the Backroad Fall Fest, and served in a shaker. This beer poured a clear, bright orange color with a small, frothy, off-white head that slightly lasted. Some faint lace was left behind. The aroma was made up of mild caramel, bread, and some light citrus. The flavor was caramel, bready yeast, and a touch of citrus hoppiness. The mouthfeel was light to medium-bodied with a decent dose of carbonation. A solid beer that is true to style.

(Notes from October 2006.) Pours a deep fiery caramel-aburun. Thin head disssipates quickly. Fairly faint but pleasant malty caramel aroma with a bare hint of hop bitterness. Flaor is a big burst of caramel and misplaced fruity esters. Some diacetyl as well. Somewhat lacking in malt sweetness -- definitely pushes the dry end of the fest style. Thick, slightly sticky palate fits the style. Right idea that misses its mark.
