DiarmaidBHK	2.4 Battlefield Spotsylvania Scottish 70 Draft at brewpub. Pours brown with a slightly off putting woody smell like cedar which I’m not feeling. Taste as a slight malty note but it fades quickly in the finish. Meh! Saturday, June 16, 2012
magsinva	2.6 Battlefield Spotsylvania Scottish 70 Tap @ the pub - Id love to tell you about the aroma but I can’t smell anything because the pub is smokey and I’m allergic. Anyway, pours a clear amber with a thin white head. Lightly carbonated with some minerality, I notice the bitterness of the beer last, finishes dry. Palate is very light and refreshing. Would be a good session beer since it is light and relatively bland. Saturday, June 16, 2012
DiarmaidBHK	2.6 Battlefield Chancellor Pale Ale Draft at brewpub/dungeon. Pours brown yellow with a thin white head with not much on the nose. Of course the refrigerated glasses don’t help. Slight hop flavor on the tongue. Finish is fairly clean if a bit watery. Meh! Saturday, June 16, 2012

Foxbush	2.9 Battlefield Iwo Jima Red Ale Thgis was tasted at a luncheon with our Fredericksburg salesperson. He knew I liked to try new beers. The Red Ale was the best of those tasted. It had a deep red color with smallish to no head. They need to improve carbonation on all their beers. There was some caramel and earthy flavors. The finish was smooth but again the ale just lacked body. ABV was 6.4% and complimented the ale. Saturday, July 16, 2011
Foxbush	2.6 Battlefield Chancellor Pale Ale This was tasted at a luncheon meeting at The Pub. I was taken there to taste some microbrews. The APA was yellow in color with a smallish head. There was some bitterness of extra hops. The ale lacked body. It just seemed to be too thin. Smooth finish but not much to cheer about. I hope they will work on the ale. I will try later in the year.
