Bottle. It pours an unclear reddish brown body with an orange hue. A nice beige head leaves cute lacing. The aroma has a hint of diacetyl, but is more on the toffee-ish, bready side. Some orange marmalade-ish hops chiming in, taking about half the scene. It's full to medium bodied and nicely carbonated, with a decent bitterness. Orange marmalade, some pine cones and a touch of grass in the flavor, along with toffee and some bread. Medium length finish. Sort of throwback-ish this one, and a bit heavy on the malty side I think, but a decent brew anyway. 210109
