Bottle [from trade with bierkoning, thanks!] @ home. Clear light amber to amber color with a medium to full sized white to off-white head that lasts for a decent while and leaves fair lacing. Aroma is decently hoppy with a clear note of malts and caramalts. Flavor is indeed malt forward initally with caramalts clearly in there, again though a more than decent hoppiness and a pleasant hoppiness as well. Well balanced, works with the caramalts which provide a firm malt bitter finish while the hops give the beer a pleasant mellowed down flavor with perhaps a hint of floral-sweetness and grassy-sweetness. I like this one. Pretty well done!
