Maybe the best creation from Bicycle yet, IMHO. A great deal of fresh and refreshing taste from such a light ABV beer. The nose has surprising notes of lemon along with honey and grain. The 37 IBUs generate a spritely fruity bitterness with lemon, orange and grapefruit elements. The honey and grain play well with the fruitiness. A hint of roasted nuts is a bonus.

Dark copper pour, medium off white head. Super earthy malts, and hops. Pine resin, slightly toasty, and nutty malts. Reminds me a lot of their ipa minus the candied citrus zest flavours. Loads of sticky pine resins, medium bitterness, and a sweet, bready, malty finish. Pretty heavy for an amber.

Draft: Poured a clear amber color ale with a nice off-white foamy head. Aroma of grainy malt with light caramel malt notes with some earthy hops notes. Taste is also a mix of grainy malt notes with some earthy hops and some light bitter notes. Body is about average with good carbonation. OKish amber but I don’t really dig their malt bill.

Growler - Carmel, twig and some pine hops. Clearish dark copper brown with a small beige head. Nice up front bitterness, caramel, light chocolate and a light hoppy notes. Odd but OK.

A hazed reddish amber ale with a thin mocha head. In aroma, nice biscuit malt with very nice floral and resinous hops, nice grainy notes, nice. In mouth, a nice biscuit malt with grassy floral hops, grapefruit pulp, very nice. Mini growler from the brewery.
