Muddy dark amber color; big creamy head. It has a very nice American hop aroma, with fruits (cedar). Good smooth mouthfeel, caramel flavor, just the necessary sweetness; strong hopping, flavorful, resiny and fruity. Very long final. Not original anymore, but surely very pleasant for hop lovers with a touch of sweetness.
