      Red-brown, pretty clear, good head. Smells like tropical fruit. Good body, sweet-ish. Pretty good fruity hop flavor all the way through. Unexpectedly clean finish.. Thanks to Chuck Farnham for the bottle!

      Overall Impression (3)
      Amber, thick white head, moderate carbonation. Some grapefruit aroma and a little smoke. Good body, nice and malty. Real nice balance, not too bitter and not too sweet. Not as all-around-big as Anchor Steam, but it's a pretty good beer. Thanks to Chuck Farnham for the bottle!
  • Road Dog Ale
    Scottish-Style Export Ale

      Overall Impression (3)
      Deep dark red, high carbonation, not a lot of head. Very smoky aroma. Fairly big body, nice dark maltiness, and a fair bit of smoke. Sweetness grows throughout the finish. Compare this one to Broadway's draught version. Thanks to Chuck Farnham for the bottle!
