Bottle received in trade from Bigtreebrewing, thanks for the opportunity. Pours a crystal clear deep golden color with a smallish quickly receding bone white head. Sweet sugary malts with hints of bread and fruit with just a touch of earthy spice to counter. Decent sipper.

Thanks to Darren for bringing this up here.
I poured this into a pilsener glass.
The appearance was a fairly light and somewhat hazy yellow to light orange glossiness. There was some decent lacing that slid into the beer after a one finger white foamy head topped the glass.
The smell had a decent blend of semi - sweet caramel maltiness allowing a decent sweet grassy aftertaste.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fair sessionability about it. The carbonation was somewhat there and wasn’t overbearing at any rate.
Overall, I say this was a pretty good beer that I would have again.

(Thanks Peter "russellcrow") Bottle. A- Grains, cereal, hay, grass, malty. A- Golden orange color, clear liquid, white head. T- Grains, cereal, malty, spices. P- Light body, average texture, average carbonation, crisp finish. O- A pretty boring beer. Not bad by any means but there just isn’t a lot to excite a person here. Far from the complex description this beer states it has. The goat on the label looks nice though,
