Tap at FBGF. Pours amber with off-white head. Aroma is hoppy piney, malty with some citrus fruits. Taste, hoppy, malty with light notes of caramel. Seemed to be getting a lot more sweetness in the palate than in the aroma. Fizzy palate for a light bitter hoppy finish. Wasn’t really impressed bu it.
