Draft at Hops &Bottles. Dark, clear golden pour, small, bubbly head. Aroma is clean simple, malt forward. The caramel malts blossom in the taste, rich and full, accented by a small, but lingering hoppy bite. Really wonderful APA

Pours amber with a fading head.Nose shows soft sweet clean malt, faint grapefruit and pine.Very drinkable flavours, light sweet clean malt and a bit of spicy hops. Perhaps a bit too sweet.Could use more carbonation.
