12oz bottle I think I picked up at Frankllins. Pours a clear, burnt orange with some lacing, sudsy white head. Nose is has some cracker, some lemony hop, a little yeast, some soap. Tough to pull out one hop aroma. Flavor is fine, bitter, malty, soapy, a little pine. Zesty on the finish. Solid but also unremarkable.
