3.56/5  rDev +6.3%
look: 4.5 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5
Appearance – Dark, ruby brown in color with a very pretty, slightly-tanned head that rose up two fingers or so and laced the glass on the way down.

Smell – This is toasted American grain that didn’t come out too bad. It’s very sweet and contains some nice sugars, particularly caramel and brown sugar.

Taste – This is better than I had expected. There’s a light cask-aged bourbon flavor here, but other than that it’s pretty much what I got from the nose. The toasted grain is the highlight here. I’m not a big grain fan but they did as good as they could with it.

Mouthfeel – Somewhat light for the style, but the toasted sweetness is very pleasing to the cheeks.

Drinkability – I haven’t been too endeared to the TK beers prior to this, but the Happy Cow is a cut above the others.

The beer pours a deep somewhat hazy brown, or mahogany if you like, the head is modest in size, frothy in texture and a light to medium tan color, as it erodes a fine sealing sheet of lace forms upon the glass. Sweet malt dominates the crisp and fresh nose, hints of lightly toasted grain also present, a sweet malt rich start with the top light to medium in feel. Finish is brisk in its acidity, the hops pleasant in their spicy bite, droughty aftertaste, a fine drinkable beer.

Dark Red color, medium white foamy head. Aroma is fruity and sweet, with a touch of spice. Rich robust roasted malts. Smooth rich flavor. Slightly hoppy. Full round mouthfeel, smooth taste. OK winter beer. Finish is smooth. Aftertaste is malty, slightly bitter.
