Pour is a dark amber with a large white head. Aroma is a nice fresh hoppy pine. Like being in the mountains or a nice breezy day. Flavor is more of the malt used. Some caramel, a bit of roasted nuts and bit of sticky toffee. A small oliy hop is detected but it is very minor. Thankfully the sweetness of the malt is also low. It is an ok beer I was expecting more of a hop presence from these guys but at least itβs not a total sweet malt bomb.

Unclear amber-ish color with a fine off white head. Ok intensity in the aroma. Medium (+) body and a fine carbonation. Ok balance between sweetness and bitterness. Caramel, some crystal malt, citric and fruity flavor. Decent winter ipa.
