Tap at Titans. Clear, oily gold with orange tints. A bit heavy on the malt, crackers and lemon. Soft malt flavor, citrus hop, cat piss. Ok.

Poured up on tap at the brewery where it exhibits a nearly clear gold body that supports a white head that leaves behind spotty lacing. The aroma is strongly malty with a light sweet smelling maltiness mixed with an intriguing roasty malt to a coffee sensation. The taste is malty and seemingly a bit roasty despite the color where Iβm getting a blend of roasted malts and coffee to slightly a biscuit thing going on. This is interesting. Well behind the malts is a snippet of floral to slightly herbal like hoppiness. As this warms and the more I drink the roasty to coffee sensation seems to fade away. All in all this works.
