On tap at the brewery. Very nice dark pour but not black. Big head and smell is just plain old beery good. Friendly personality for a lager lover. No ill bitter effects can be detected. Has enough personality to let you know its beer but never over the top, quite enjoyable, I like. Fun and interesting thru the whole session. Good tingle on the back of the throat. Tho no real bitterness, some mild roasty bitterness does develop on the finish. Good overall experience.
