I had this in a sampler at the Eccentric Cafe while on our beercation in Michigan.

Appearance: Pours a cloudy red amber with a finger of thick off white head. Great head retention and lacing.

Smell: Mildly sweet malt up front along with some citrus hops.

Taste: Quite malty with a mild spice. Some citrus hop bitterness balanced by a sweetness from the malt.

Mouthfeel: Medium body with smooth carbonation and a dry finish.

Overall: A very nice looking beer, nice to drink but not very interesting.

Dark copper color with a tan head. Fruity hops and caramalt on the nose, the taste is led by the fruity hops, with loads of caramalt flavors to balance things quite nicely.

Unknown vintage; drank 9/23/15 on draft @ Bangers & Lace Evanston.

Murky red rust appearance.

Off-white head; strong lace.

Caramel, orange citrus & coriander notes in the nose.

Medium mouthfeel.

Orange zest, caramel & coriander flavors. Sessionable but very flavorful; I wish this was easier to get!
