Bottle. It pours a hazy, golden-orange body under a minimal sized off-white head. Resiny, grassy nose with a nice maltyness, hints of beef-stock as well. The flavor has a little peach added to the grassy, resiny hops, and the sweet malts makes a nice foundation. Medium to full body with pleasant carbonation. A bit low on bitterness in the finish. Quite quenching and drinkable, without being big at all. (090520)

bottle, pours a murky blond/amber with a medium white head. Aroma is grapefruit and hops with some sugar. Sweet malt, sweet/sour, and bitter hops. Really nice and drinkable with a variety of hop characteristics in the finish. Not bombarded by bitter which is nice. I like.
