Draft at the brewpub. Filtered brown amber-orange color. Malty, but not aggressively thick. Really straightforward. Sweet, with a a spicy hop balance. Comes off almost Lager-like to me. OK.

I was a big fan of Hoster’s 90 Shilling Ale when it was around, so seeing another Columbus brewer creating the same style was kind of exciting. The beer is a dark brown-amber with a medium thick light tan head that has pretty good retention. Roasted malt aroma is very prevalent, along with a bit of hops. Medium-bodied with a sweet malty character, plus some caramel and bitter hops. The finish is dry and sweet at first but ending up with a lingering bitterness. Pretty good all around.
