From notes. Draft 4oz glass from a flight at Old Chicago. Has a light amber color to it with a frothy off-white head. Looks pretty good. It has a slight hop scent but I think the head is blocking most of the aroma. Its lightly bitter. It tastes more malty than hoppy. Roasted nuts. Light bodied with a creamy texture and soft carbonation. Overall, its not bad. Something I would drink again but not seek out.

Draft. 1st brew back from Australia and this is one reason to miss American beers. Smells is light caramel malts, lights hops and some earthiness. The mouthfeel is almost creamy while keeping it’s carbonation. Taste is creamy caramel, light hops. Another nice one from Bells.
