Keg at the brewpub, Asheville, 17/02/15. Clear chestnut brown with moderately apppointed light beige spotting and edgework. Nose is nutty, caramel, spice, light coconut, woody. Taste comprises green pepper, light cocoa rub, spice, coconut shavings. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Ok stuff, not a mild but more flavoursome than the trail of generic rew pub ambers, wheats and wits that are normally put to the sword.
