64oz growler pour, filled at the brewpub, exhibits a clear amber ruby red colored body that supports a full tan head of foam. The aroma offers up sweet crystal malts, spicy mineral hops, modest pine hops, thin fruity esters and then a sense of citrus at the end of the draw. The taste delivers mild pine hops, faint pepper, a dash of citrus and then modest crystal malt dark fruity ester like notes. To midway it dries out a tad with earthy almost black tea hops and then spicy Cascade hoppiness to go along with a sense of rye twangy maltiness. Pretty nice easy drinking brew that goes a little too light on the hops for my taste.
