Bottle at Malone’s Urban Drinkery, Vancouver
Cloudy orange-amber color, small head. The aroma has caramel, with a fruity touch, but it seems unfresh. Quite good caramel and toffee flavor, the hopping gives a mild fruity and resiny touch, there is also a very light sour trace; correct bitterness. Not fresh.

Bottle: Poured a deep amber color ale with a rather large foamy head with good retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of light bitter hops with lightly sweet caramel malt. Taste is also a nice enough mix between some caramel malt with light residual sugar and some bitter hops at the end. Body is quite full with good carbonation. Not bad but nothing spectacular.
