Draft – Downtown. Dark orange, thin white fizzy head. Soft fruity rye and peppery earth-like aromas ride a light bready caramel undertone throughout. Dry spicy rye and light caramel fruit tones round to earthed hop finish. Light bodied with soft carbonation. Decent session brew, but nothing outstanding here…
