On tap at the Old Fountain. Thanks guys, for the cellar run on this one! Light haze on this amber beer. Little white head. Palate is smooth and light with mild carbonation. Mild mild malt base. Tangy dried fruit hops, fresh but pretty mild with a touch of zesty orange. Finishes smooth and dry. Not bad at all.
