A few pints from a growler filled the previous day at the brewpub. Pour is a hazed brown with some copper and a smallish off white head. Aroma is fresh pine hops, along with a bit of toasty roasty malt. Taste is the bright clean hops, pine and a touch of resin, balanced nicely with lighter toasted, mildly roasted malt. Palate is lighter bodied, nice active carbonation and a clean bitter finish. Quite drinkable - seemed somewhere in between a Brown Ale and a Porter which worked nicely with the hops.

10oz tulip @ the brewpub. Delicious hoppy brown ale. Hops are sweet and piny. Base brown is easy to drink, nothing particular to mention about it. Good mix of hops with a brown ale underneath, as advertised.
