12 oz bottle. Pours copper with an off-white head. Aroma has citrus hops and caramel with slight berry notes. Flavor has toasty biscuit and caramel, grapefruit, and a touch of red grape, somewhat sweet. Has a nice, but not strong, bitterness. Not a lot of bells (heh) and whistles, just a really well-done beer.

Sample from a bottle at the Day Before Labor Day party. The beer is a deep amber color with a medium fluffy off-white head that recedes steadily. Stringy lacing on the glass. Aroma of caramel malt, pineapple and piney hops. Medium body with a piney hops character as well as sweet caramel and toasted malt. The finish is hoppy with a ripe fruity aftertaste. Decent beer overall.
