6/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 6
Location: Draft at the Brewpub, 10/2/10

Aroma: The nose has caramel/toffee malts along with a bit of hops, a fairly light nose
Appearance: This one is a clear orange color-red beer with a head that leaves light lace on the glass
Flavor: The taste is fairly balanced, subtle, with a light malty sweetness and some hops as well
Palate: The body is light to medium, it has an alright mouthfeel, but it thins out a bit as it goes
Overall Impression: Overall this reminded me of a something between a simple, standard ESB and a low hop English style IPA. I didn't love it, but I found it to be sessionable enough to enjoy with my meal.
