Herb trockenes IPA. Quasi traditionell… kann man mal trinken. Prost!

The day has finally arrived. Alabama football starts tonight. Interesting afternoon games to start the day. This is a dark ale brought by my son from Nashville. Started with a moderately high heavy head, just barely off white in color. Deep copper clear color. Aroma has light malt, gently sweet but no maple. Flavor starts as rustic, sharp bitter burnt wood. The middle finally allows a semi-sweet malt as the flavor moves more into a char. Nothing new in the finish which is brief. I was expecting much more. Couple of earlier reviews gave it a decent rating but I really can't find that syrupy maple. Perhaps the roasted wood was maple but that's not enough for me. Very average.

Reasonable dark. Not all as hoppy as hoped for.
