Slightly hazy light copper. The aroma - I can’t decide if that’s spiciness or 7-Up. Caramel, light metallic notes, some bread. Finishes a bit juicy.

Nutty brown colour. Thin, light mocha head. Toasty, lightly chocolatey nose. The palate is kind of tart, with a touch of breadcrust, but water and maybe even a bit off. At the town’s own beer fest? Yikes.
