Nice slightly bubbly-creamy mediumlasting head. Aroma is very mild, grass, minerals, leafs, moss, flowers, hay, caramel malts, fresh hops, sap. Taste is mild grassy, weeds, minerals, grass, moss, hay, leafs, flowers, fresh hops, caramel malts, sap. Medium bitterness, slightly watery and grassy mouthfeel. Fair enough, just boring.

On tap at Mikkeller Oakland. It pours a golden amber color with an off white head. The aroma is toasted with some caramel and red fruit. Rich floral and toffee notes. The flavor has some caramel and weird peanut notes. Lightly flowery with more red fruit like grape and plum. Medium bitterness. Not really digging this one too much.
