On tap at Oakland CHoP. Aroma is malt forward with nice notes of toasted bread and crackers, medium light caramel notes and hints of dark fruits and sugar. Hints of herbal, woodyl hop notes and hints of alcohol. Pours a very clear, amber color with auburn hues and a small, thick, pillowy, slightly tan head that recedes steadily to a small film that lingers. Flavor has a light sweetness with notes of toasted bread and crackers as well as hints of dried dark fruits and slightly burnt caramel. Medium bitterness and light alcohol notes. Faint herbal, woody hop notes. Mouthfeel is light bodied and a bit crisp and dry with medium carbonation. Low astringency and faint alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid amber lager. Really nice, fairly complex malt character with balanced bitterness. Hop profile is light but complimentary and alcohol is well hidden. Very clean and easy drinking.
