12oz can pours with a clear copper body that supports a thin light tan head. The aroma offers up lagery yeasty notes mixing with apple and fig like fruit as well as a dash of caramel malts. The taste has the same stuff going on as I get sweet fruity esters teaming up with a lagery yeastiness and sugar sweet malts. There’s no real safe haven from the sweetness but that’s to style, sadly.

Draft at the source. Clear golden color. Aroma of caramel and straw. Taste is similar. Decent example of the style.

Can @ home. Clear, burnt orange appearance with an ivory head. Toasty, caramel, Munich malty, toffee, mild noble hoppy aroma that’s a touch spicy. Somewhat spicy, caramel/Munich malty, toffee flavor, somewhat light bodied for the style. Drinkable but disappointing.

Bright copper. Really shines in the sunlight. Fresh grainy aroma is full of pale malt. Somewhat thin, and the fresh bready character is largely absent from the palate as well. Disappointing once it gets to the tongue.

Can - clear light amber pour - very fizzy - short-lived head - nose of toasted maltiness, lightly doughy yeast, mild esters - flavor is clean but kind of bland - light toasted maltiness and moderate sweetness - a light touch of nuttiness - clean, but not much happening - watery finish - meh.

12oz can-pours a foamy off white head and amber color. Aroma is light/medium malt-caramel, light fruit/some spice. Taste is sweet light/medium malt-caramel/bready, fruit/some spice hops.

Can from Liz. Pours copper with some off-white head. Caramel aroma. Med body; foamy carb. Flavor is light caramel with some grassy hop. Clean it is. Not a strong statement, but drinkable.
