Reviewed from notes.
This was poured into a pint glass.
The appearance was a nice hazy golden orange to yellow but also having a light brown flowing through and all around in the color. The head was about a half finger’s worth and trickled in its lacing.
The smell had a roasty caramel malt and slight nuttiness try to invade but maintain a healthy background.
The taste was mainly sweet and roasty adding a light element of nuttiness separate of the sweet and roasty flavorings.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a decent sessionability about it. The carbonation was somewhat smooth but also had a decent sharpness about it as well.
Overall, good beer for the most part that I would have again.

Hazy amber beer, short cream coloured head. Softish and slightly thick palate with a little fine carbonation. Rich malt with toffee. Piney hops in the background provide some balance. Trace of citrus as well. Not bad - quite rich and tasty.
