Pours a clear reddish amber with a thick creme head. Aroma of sweet earthy malt and grass. Taste has resinous hoppy malt. Palate has oak. Good beer, very much like an IPA.

Backlog rating. Pours a deep amber to brown with a finger of beige head that lingers. Toasted malt aromas with some caramel and floral hops. Earthy on the palate, with some mineral notes, caramel, toasted toffee and soap. Bitter finish, with herbal/floral notes with faint alcohol.

From old tasting notes. Translucent orange amber color with a big yellowish beige head. Sweet molasses, toasted malt aroma. Semisweet malt flavor sports good dry hop character in middle. Well rounded and full flavored. Nicely balanced.
