On tap at the La Grande brewery/taproom Clear deep copper pour with scant wispy off white head and web like lacing. Soft toasted woody sweetness in the malts. A touch of bitterness nicely complimentary. Softly carbonated lending a bit of a cask feel. Quite good.

16oz can from Side A. Dark, clear golden pour, fizzy head. Bready, malty aroma. Taste is light, crackers, malty. Kind of a sticky feel and a medium weight to it . Heavier than your average pale lager.
