My personal favorite of the Berkshires. It's on the sweet side, with a slight edge of fruityness, that is thankfully mellow and understated like the rest of the beer. The aftertaste reminds me of blackberries.

    Cask. Amber colour, not too much head. Aroma is wooden, earthy, mild sourish fruity notes as well as some nuttyness. Flavour is caramel, wood, some maplesyrup, mild spices as well as some slight alcoholic sweet notes.

    Pours with a slightly cloudy deep red brown body topped by a medium thick head leaving behind a good amount of lace. Sweet and fruity aroma similar to banana bread. Sweet and fruity(banana) malt flavor with a good hoppiness. The finish is malty with roasty notes. Medium to full bodied, slightly warming and smooth.

    Inspired by a western MA radio station, this is a slightly sweet ale for those who don't necessarily like sweet beer. The taste is mellow and understated with a hint of blackberry on the finish. Only comes in the 22oz, but if you find it one tap, you have to promise me you'll have a pint.
