Reviewed from notes.
The appearance was a ruddy burnt dark orange to amber color with a finger’s worth of white foamy head that slid off pretty quick. Not much lace.
The aroma had some sweet nuts, smooth caramel/toffee sweet malts, grassy hops and sweet bready/doughiness.
The flavor leaned towards the smooth sweet breadiness. Some dark breadiness came in. Super smooth lingering malty aftertaste and finish.
The palate was between light and medium bodied. Good sessionability. Carbonation felt fine. ABV felt fine.
Overall, good as a beer, somewhat lager-like, but didn’t bother me. I’d come back to this.

Pours a straw from a tap, lots of hay in the nose, makes it difficult to drink, works better when I take the hay out. Okay beer.

Pours gold into a shaker. Bright white soapy head with medium retention recedes to bubble surface. Hay and caramel aromas. Crisp with sweet/sour citrus and hay front to back. Lasting bitter earth finish.

Draught at Galway House, 11/17/16.
Clear, straw-golden. White head immediately fizzles away.
Soft, dusty, lightly herbal hops in the nose with a bit more spiciness picking up on the finish. Some toasted malt character, in a healthy balance with the base malt, gives a baguette character. Clean, no alcohol or flaw.
Light to medium-bodied, with good attenuation, straw, grain and toasted bread malt character balancing herbal/spicy German hops. Fizzy carbonation and not much of a substantial maltiness to it, texture-wise. Kind of fruity. Seems more like an American golden ale with German hops, but at least it’s clean and reasonably drinkable.

I really like this beer, and it reminds me quite a bit of SN’s current oktoberfest. Golden color, nice vinous maltiness, a bit juicy, toffee. Good peppery hoppiness, gives it a small kick and a balanced finish. Shows a little off-fruitiness if you drink it too warm, so put a good chill on it.

Bottle pours a hazy copper golden quick fizzy light tan head. Grainy light malt flavors. Some hop character and fair bitterness. Some wet paper malt notes at the end.
