This was very good for a session beer. Bitter hops aroma with an herbal quality. Cloudy orange appearance. Flavor has oranges and black pepper. There are lots of hops but also a medium sweet malt base. Very smooth palate.

Draft. Copper beer with an off-white head. Malty, roasty aroma. Roasty, malty, slight coffee flavor with backing bitterness. Medium bodied. A bit muddled. Too much roasty graininess.
