On tap at the brewpub. 4.7% 35 IBUs Not all that pale it is a dark amber that makes it look like a Vienna lager. Similar hoppy nose to Chiquita pine needles + fruitiness maybe emphasizing lemon. Medium bodied-full with a soft round carbonation. The taste is odd I get seafood flavors from it, pine, biscuit and caramel with a sharp bitter pine bark finish. Pretty good but not what I was expecting from the name which was a paler hoppier beast.

A hazed amber lager with a thin off white head. In aroma, nice crisp biscuit malt with grassy German hops, light mineral notes, OK. In mouth, a smooth grainy biscuit malt with cereal character, grassy hops, light mineral notes, roasted notes, nice. On tap at brewery.
