Pour is a clear copper with a large white head. Aroma is a pretty good malt with some hints of roaster nuts and some biscuits. Flavor is more of a spicy and earthy malt with english hops. I also did get an odd plastic after the finish. This was a true to the style British ale with plenty of earthy malt but that odd plastic at the end kind of stays with you.

12 oz. can. Pours dark, clear bronze, with a medium, beige, bubbly head. The aroma is mild biscuit dough, cloves, pecans, and some very mellow, earthy hops. Nicely balanced sweet maltiness and easy bitterness. Light body, velvety, syrupy, and clean. This is a very easy, malty, delicious beer. Well balanced, creatively and judiciously hopped, and very interesting.

Bottle shared at Max and Andy's Tasting, 2/28/15
I found this pretty light overall from a flavor and a feel perspective. It is a little thin and a little dull. It isn't something I'd rush out for again. Seems like they took the flavor out along with the alcohol.

Shaker pint draft at The Burg & Barrel in Overland Park, Kansas. The pour is mostly clear golden copper with a one inch foamy light tan head that falls leaving nice lace. The aroma is tea crystal malt along with some dry floral. The taste is the dry grain crystal malt, moves towards grassy floral dry in the crisp finish. The palate is light bodied with active carbonation and the clean finish. Quite drinkable.
