4.6/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 5 Flavor 4 Texture 4 Overall 4.5
On tap at Red Truck, pours a hazy dark copper / bronze with a small beige head. Aroma brings out lots of toasted caramel malt and resinous, grassy hops in decent balance. Flavour is along the same lines, though not as well balanced, with grassy hops, toasted bready malt and some skunkiness. Not balanced and rather unpleasant. Standard for Red Truck.

Draught at the brewery
Golden color, clean, with creamy head. Mild dank aroma, manure, some malt. Soft and round mouthfeel, moderately sweet, some malt flavor; the bitterness is surprisingly strong for Red Truck, and the alcohol feels more than expected.
Nothing too exciting, but it’s a solid strong-ish ale, Very enjoyable, better than the recent production at Red Truck.

Light golden-bronze, with a thin head. Hoppy, slightly stewed peaches nose. Soft body has moderate bitterness and is generally hop forward. Vague caramel to the malts. Not quite hoppy enough for me but it’s a decent brew.
