Aggie80 (923) - Michigan, USA - OCT 31, 2021UPDATED: OCT 31, 2021 From a bottle, hazy slightly reddish brown, tan head and a little lacing. Earthy flavors with a distinct bitterness to it. The alcohol definitely causes a burn aftertaste.
TheLocalRich (6) - Michigan, USA - APR 19, 2020 does not count UPDATED: MAY 16, 2020 Bitter, sour, unwelcoming. A directionless mess. The craft beer bubble in a glass.
rennat42 (4430) - Ravenna, Nebraska, USA - AUG 17, 2019UPDATED: AUG 17, 2019 Bottle.
A- Leather, caramel, biscuits, mild dark fruit.
A- Brown color, dark liquid, tan head.
T- Dark fruits, caramel, mild chestnuts, brown sugar, slightly malty.
P- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish.
O- A pronounced dark fruited note throughout with hits of roasted nuts and some caramel. Good but it just seems like this could have been a bit more robust and complex. Almost like they played it with some caution.
Piw (2128) - Rüsselsheim, GERMANY - SEP 11, 2018355ml Flasche. Klar und bernsteinfarben mit kleiner Schaumkrone. Röstaromen mit Karamellnoten. Malzig. Etwas süßlich im Antrunk, dann leicht herb.
mjmoen (724) - - JUL 28, 2018B-. Pours a clear mahogany with tan head. Notes of roasted chestnuts and caramel
Cybercat (10436) - Atlanta, Georgia, USA - JUL 12, 2018Pours clear mahogany with a thick and fairly persistent buff head. Fair aroma features toasted malt, caramel and subtle dark fruit notes. Not strong, but invites a taste. Sweet flavor yields dark fruit, toasted malt, caramel, resiny hops - and is that a snipped of chocolate? Texture offers firm, smooth body if not a lot of fizz. Take a loch at this one.
thunderpup12 (24) - Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA - JUN 18, 2018Really like this beer and don't understand the negative ratings. Tastes like a pleasant hybird of a sour and a scotch ale.
unclefrito62 (1737) - Stow, Ohio, USA - MAY 19, 201812 ounce bottle at home. Very thin beige head, no film on glass. Deep, dark brown in color. Taste the malt, not much hops. Medium bodied. Alcohol well hidden. Smooth. A little sweet. Above average for style. Cheers!
frb27 (2) - Indiana, USA - APR 27, 2018 does not count Six pack from Meijer's. Notes of caramel, raisins, nuts. Minimal hop presence. Made the mistake of chilling the first bottle to ca. 45 degrees, which threw the taste out of whack. Had the rest at 55-60 and everyhing, taste, aroma, mouth feel, came into harmony. Will definitely have again.
ScoWRee (464) - Perkiomen, Pennsylvania, USA - APR 8, 2018Pours a deep dark brown with a thin tan foamy head. Aroma of roasted coffee. Taste is nutty, smooth. A very nice ale.
