22oz bomber. Color is lighter than the IPA which I found surprising. Taste is malt through and through with a lingering presenence of toasted nuts of some variety. The head presents itself for a full on malt explosion and the taste draws you in. The earthy undertone brings forth a relaxing state of mind when ingesting slowly. Nice brew.

22oz bottle. Pours a nice hazy light brown with thick head. Not to strong on the nose but its a nice malty smell. Taste is about the same as well, sweet malty, bread like flavor, not too strong but what you do taste is good. Its a decent ESB.
