Pour is a hazy copper with a large white head. Aroma is a strong toasted cracker malt. I can smell it from the glass. Flavor is again a mild toasted malt with some bready accents. Not something that is going to wow you but drinkable especially in hot weather.

Sampled from a bottle this beer poured a hazy golden color with a small foamy orange white head that left decent lacing. The aroma was lemon candy and a bit of mustiness. The flavor was tart and sour with a lemon candy note. Long finish. Medium body.

Nonic pint at Exile Brewing Company in Des Moines, Iowa. The pour is clear golden with a ½ inch white head that leaves behind pretty splotchy lace. The aroma is bright tropical grapefruit citrus, with a hint of resin. The taste is somewhat muted hop, with pineapple, grapefruit and a whisper of the resin. A bit of cereal malt peeks through as it warms. The palate is light bodied, active carbonation and a clean softly bitter finish.
