355 ml can. Pours a very dark brown with moderate tan head. Aromas of light caramel, sugars, and bready malts. Flavors of caramel, woody oak, and toasted malts with a funny medicinal note and possibly some salt if I think about it. Not that great, and disappointing; but drinkable.

6.5/10
Somewhat cloudy blond with half a finger of soapy white head. Taste is strongly hoppy. Resin, perfume, a touch of citrus and some bitterness in the finish. Here's the rub, its all over a fairly thin, dry hay malt bases. But....it's only sporting 3.5%. It's pretty good for a light session.
