It pours an opaque brown, with medium beige head. It's very earthy, with vegetable bitterness in the finish; too bad because the aroma has some nice floral and tropical hop, although muffled by the malt and maybe by the yeast.
Makes me wonder why somebody would brew a fundamentally flawed concept like this, in this year.

Consumed while watching eagles, ospreys and freighters on the Fraser River. Dark amber colour. Lots of big hop on the nose, though it's tough to latch onto any individual attributes. Similar on the palate, with a fair bit of chewy maltiness and indistinct hops. I'm not sure this one is hitting for me - it's good but that's about it.
