In commemoration of the release of Wishface's new CD.

Ruddy red color with a low and frothy off-white head. Low sweet malt aroma. Nice malty flavor with notes of toffee and caramel. Moderately and pleasantly sweet, not cloying. Finishes with a hint of marshmallow. Even and full mouthfeel, moderately carbonated. Very drinkable.

On-tap 10/26/07 at the brewpub, served in a US tumbler pint glass.

A: The beer is a deep reddish brown color, with a short off-white head that fades slowly and leaves a thick lace on the glass.

S: The aroma is of smoky but light malts, tea, caramel and a little hops.

T: The taste is malty and smoky with flavors of caramel, tea and some spice. There's a decent hops presence to provide a little balance. The after-taste is bready and slightly sweet.

M: Smooth and crisp, medium body, medium carbonation, clean and dry finish.

D: Tasty, goes down very easily, not too filling, decent kick, good representation of style, I found this beer to be pretty enjoyable, I could certainly drink it for a long time.
