Sample at the taproom. Clear straw-gold color with a medium white head that evaporates steadily to an outer ring. Partial rings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of yeast, roast malt and hops. Medium body with flavors of herbal yeast, grassy hops and pale malts. The finish is mildly spiced with a fruit and malt aftertaste. Decent overall.

On tap at Steins in Mountain View. Pours an orange with even a hint of amber - darker than expected. Aroma is candi sugar and sweet grain. Almost no head, just a collar of white. Taste is sweet malt, viscous and minimal syrupy. Finishes dry.
