Did not like this beer at all. Took one sip and that was enough for me to say "No, I don’t like this"

Draft - Smells of malt and coffee. A opaque dark brown with a heavy and persistent head. This tastes like a light stout with its malt and coffee flavor, a very light and sessionable dark beer. I would recomend this to someone who doesn’t like the richness or full body of a stout.

On tap at the brew pub. Tastes like a weak stout instead of an amber. Malty roast in an amber seems a bit weird to me. Decent and rather unconventional.

Deep ruby body. Rich chocolate malt with plenty of sweet toffee characteristics. Toasted malt and a soft floral hop component.

Thanks to Flem for the taster--Poured a deep ruby chestnut body with a fluffy off-white head. Sticky, sweet, malty nose with a little hop bite. Very easy to drink.
