Draft pour at Maelstrom. A clean, clear, slightly darker golden pour. Patchy foam head. Toms of foam lacing. Rich caramel malts, and just surprisingly sweet overall. The precise caramel flavor lingers on and on. A little lopsided to the malt side, but I happen to really like this malt bill. The hop bitterness is a late arrival, and lingers. Interesting. It got better as it went.
