Waxed bomber from jredmond. Pours hazy copper/amber with a creamy/fizzy beige head. Aroma of brown sugar and floral/grassy hop. Med + body. There is heat, but not all that much. Flavor is brown sugar, hop I can’t dissect, and wood, tho it’s not BA. There may be some mild oxidation which comes across as wood. Good! Adds character. My mouth keeps puckering in the rear palate area. This is oh so interesting and tasty. It’s malty, hoppy, "woody", near astringent, seems bitter in the finish. Yum is the word.

22oz bottle pours a hazy orange with lots of foamy, white head. Nose has orange and caramel, heavy pine, soap, honeycomb, toffee. Flavor marries caramel and pine, toffee, brown sugar. Full, sticky finish. Old school.
