3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
365ml bottle (BierKompass.de)
7 Crisp refreshing, slightly piney hop aroma.
4 Hazy to cloudy deep orange, good tight bready head.
7 So bready, toasted rye bread, just a little bit burnt.
4 Crisp palate, carbonation quite high. Finish nicely toasted, again to the point of burnt bitterness. A touch of soapiness in the hops, that’s about the only drawback.
13 Super easy quaffer, but jam packed full of the kinds of flavours you (or I) want in a beer. I could session this happily, and enjoy and appreciate every drop. 3 darn good and 1 decent beer out of 4 - these guys have really proved their worth.

3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle: Dirty caramel, moderate to large off-white head, frothy, fairly sticky lacing. Soft hop
nose, malty, a little bright. Very soft malt and hop presense on the tongue. I get that unflavored pixie
stix sort of powdered sugar aspect. Almost more of a Pale than an Amber in that it doesn’t seem malty enough.
Body and mouthfeel are very average, a little sticky around the mouth towards the finish but otherwise very
mild. Has a bit of pale citrus peel on the finish. Very non-descript for a beer, mid-way between Pale and
Amber. Nothing really stands out. Others from Baird seem more interesting, but this one is very "ho-hum".
