      Yellow, some haze, big white head. Fresh hop aroma. Excellent balance and mighty refreshing! Served very cold, though.

      Place: at the brewery

      Overall Impression (2½)
      Very dark brown, low head. Hint of coffee in nose. Big body, very sharp...like barleywine.
  • Roundhouse Red
    American-Style Amber/Red Ale

      Package: draught
      Place: at the brewery
      Score: 14 points
      Overall Impression (2½)
      Red, clear, big head, little carbonation. Toasted malt nose is interesting. Toasted malt flavor - maybe a bit overdone - and some chocolate notes. Could be more bitter.

      Package: draught
      Place: at the brewery

      Overall Impression (2½)
      Dark yellow, good head. Wheat and malt aromas. Wheat flavor, too sweet. No hop balance at all.
