Poured up on tap at the brewpub, into the massive birthday mug, where it exhibits a near clear amber colored body that supports a nice tan head that leaves behind some sheet lacing. The modest aroma offers up some lightly roasted malts, a bit of nuttiness and then a spicy hop note in the background. The taste delivers full up maltiness that’s sweet, lightly roasty and a tad nutty. Behind the malts are assertive spicy hops that keep this balanced and delicious.
