Cloudy gold with a light head and small spots of lacing. Bitter and floral hop aromas. Musky and dry. Bitter and astringent in the flavors. Same with the finish.

On Tap @ Rogue Bones & Brew Fest in Portland: Goldish-bronze color with an off-white head and sticky lacing. I thought it was very hoppy and showed a great balance for this style. Thick and smooth (almost syrupy) was the word on this one. The brew staff was friendly and so was the beer to my mouth.

Bronze colored with light, floral hop nose. Uninspiring flavor straddles ESB/IPA style with an ESB-like bitter finish.

Sampled draught at Wet Dog Cafe/Pacific Rim, Astoria
Gold color, no head. Nose is malty with a freshly added wort addition of hops, earthy & crisp. The flavor is more fresh & hoppy, nice bitterness & a dry finish.
