Nice chocolate malt and nutty flavor with a bit of dark road malts but just a faint backbone. Sweet. Medium full body. Quite easy to drink and very enjoyable.

Sample at Brass Tap Polaris. Clear copper-amber color with a medium off-white head that recedes steadily to an outer ring. Stringy lacing. Aroma of malt, hops and fruit. Medium body with flavors of earthy hops, fruit and grainy malt. The finish is mildly bitter with a short citrusy hops aftertaste. Decent overall.
