3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 keepersj12 (2956) - Sicklerville, New Jersey, USA - JUL 21, 2014
A very nice Red. Pours reddish brown. The aroma is malty sweet with caramel. The flavor is malt sweetness nicely balanced with just the right amount of hops.
3.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 BroSpud (1894) - , Massachusetts, USA - FEB 1, 2014
Tasted as part of a sampler. All brews tasted were good to above average but the only one that stood out was the porter and maybe the strong ale. The rest were fairly average examples of their respective styles without being particularly memorable. Great place overall though.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20 Bulk_Carrier (2889) - Final Resting Place, Vermont, USA - JAN 26, 2014
Reviewed from notes. Consumed 1/23/13. Growler brought home from Run of the Mill.
The appearance is a clear red body yielding no head, some light ringy yet spider web lacing appears, clings for several seconds, and slides gently into the body. Some light carbonation is seen rising slowly.
The smell has some malts up front with some very subdued caramel notes, not much else.
The taste is balanced between malts and hops, not sweet nor bitter.
The palate is a light to medium with an ample amount of harshness, expected amount for a normal red. It leaves a dry aftertaste and finish. This is mostly sessionable.
Overall, this is pretty good. I might want to come back to it, but given I dont see Run of the Mills brews in bottles anywhere, Id have to go back to the brewpub. With that in mind, Im pretty sure Id want to try more of their other stuff.
