Pint on tap at brewpub on Main Street in Vancouver poured a pale amber color with a finger of white head which settled with a few spots of lacing on side of glass. Aroma is light caramel and aromatic hops. Taste is light caramel malty sweetness with a moderate hoppy bitterness in the finish. This beer far exceeded my expectations after sampling their lager.
