Sample at the Aces & Ales Winter Beer Fest on 01/16/2015. The beer pours a clear orange-amber color with a medium off-white head that diminishes steadily. Short strings of lacing on the glass. Mildly smoky aroma with malt and hops in the background. Light to medium body with flavors of smoked malt, caramel and slight hops. The finish is sweet with a burnt malt aftertaste. Above average overall.
