Sampled on draft this beer poured a dark brown color with a medium sized creamy orange-tan bead that lingered and left good lacing. The aroma was malty, sour caramel and fruity hops. The favor was bitter fruity hops, malted milk and toffee. Medium finish. Medium body. Meh.

@ bocktown 8AM PCBW 2015 kegs & eggs. Smells quite sweet and volatile. Nice scummy thin head. A darker brown hazy beer. Wew, initially quite strong kick in the palate. Bitter stuff. Leather. A little difficult for this lager lover. Becomes a tad cloying near the finish. For some reason was thinking it would be a wilder or tart beer, but ho hum. Lacking carbonation. Yes, I’m not an expert, but I think calling this an amber style is pushing it.
