Newly released bottle to our area.Pour is a dark copper or burnt orange.
Aroma issome blegian-caramel malt sweetness with a mild underlying mild hop aroma.Some bready/yeastiness.
Taste fairly malty with toastiness caramel sweetness,pretty hoppy flavor,bitter was citrus rind, with maybe spiceyness.Has some roastiness also. A little harsh grassy bitter finish-seems higher than 27 ibu’s.This has more carmel/hoppy flavor than the one I had on tap also ,thatone was pretty mild/bland/cleaner,lighter maybe and in color and more lager like.

Citrus, earthy, orange, clear, frothy, lightly bitter, medium body, lively. An accessible, palatable, American Post-Prohibition style pale ale. Pairs nicely with spicy bbq but can stand alone as well.
