Dark copper pour, big beige head. Aroma is super earthy, grassy hops, with hintsof citrus, and some great caramel, earthy malts. Grwat mouthfeel, and carb is perfect. The finish is medium bitter, with a slightly soapy hop finish with loads of earthy matls and grassy hops, hints of caramel bread, and some toasted nuts. Nice stuff.

Pours a deep amber colour with a warm cap, good retention and creamy lacing. Loads of apples in the nose with some caramel, roasted malts and hints of nuttiness. The roasted malts are pretty tasty with some good hops. After the bitterness ends, some light sweetness lingers (brown sugars). Some rusty water aromas do come out with time. A pretty nice brew with a decent balance of sweet-fruity malts and stronger hops in the mouth.
