From a bottle. Light yellow color. Some hops, as well as yeast. Light overall, but not bad. Good for warm weather.

I did not realize this was a Gluek/Cold Spring product when I bought it. Surprisingly solid beer from these guys. Thick tan head that laces the glass, it kind of reminds me of Guinness. Light aroma, some hops and roasted malt. Flavor has roasted grain and dry, bitter hops. Flavor is well balanced. Solid palate.

On tap at SPSBF. Pours a cloudy pale gold with a white head that dissipates slowly to the edges. Aroma has a bit of hoppiness with sweet creamy grain backing. Flavor is much more creamy with some earthy grain backin and a hint of grassy hops.

Pours a dark brown with a light brown head that lasts throughout the beer. Aroma has a nice earthy pine note with backing dark grains and a roasted note that works nicely with the pine. Flavor is roasty throughout with more roast up front and an earthy pine note that comes out in the finish.
