On tap at the brewpub. Aroma is soft malt, has a good deep brown body with modest foam. Flavour is soft lager mixed with malt. Mouthfeel is full enough and slightly dry. This is decent and drinkable enough though not particularily interesting.

On tap. An amber colored lightly uncear beer topped by a finger-thick, off-white head. Lightly citrusy and piney aroma with some caramel maltyness in the back. The flavor is pretty much the same, a shot of caramel malts and sweetness serves as a backdrop for bitterness and hoppy flavors. Lasting finish with fruityness and a decent bitterness. Overall, quite nice, but a bit heavy on the caramel malts I think. 130703

Bottle - Malty with grapefruit/aromatic hops on the nose. Thick white head and a clear amber hue. Very mild with some hop bitterness, caramel/malt character is nicely balanced against hops. A very nondescript and sessionable IPA, but nothing too unique.
