(Draught) Pours a lightly hazy golden body with a medium white head. Aroma of herbs, florals, peach, light candy sweetness, and grain. Flavor of roasted chestnuts, herbs, pineapple, grass, citrus, and light pepper.

Tap at Rackhouse Pub - pretty boring, this - very little character from the yeast - flavor is light toasty grain and a semi-dry, crackery malt - the rest of the flavor are a bit off - kind of medicinal and adjunct-y - lightly peppery on the tail end - has the misfortune of being both boring and flawed - shame.

On tap at Rackhouse pub rare beer tasting 2011. Pour was hazy yellowish orange with white head, aroma brought slight notes of grass, touch of peach and apricot, slight hint of earth and spice. Taste was a bit watery but some notes of tropical fruit, spice and pepper, grass, finishing fairly dry. Not bad.
