Draft @ beer temple. Aroma has a little brown malt, but is quite faint. Tastes thin and malty, tiny touch of hazelnut. Not much going on in this beer, like it’s not finished yet.

On tap at Caldera, pours a hazy amber with a medium beige head. Aroma brings out toasted caramel, resinous hops, and toasted bread. Flavour is very well-balanced between the hops and malt, with a solid resinous hop punch and a thick caramel malt backbone. Extremely well-crafted strong red ale.

Deep amber color. Cherries and oranges in the nose. Full bodied, very hoppy, cherries and oranges. Well a balanced but not great depth.
