3.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Balanced aroma of malt and hop. Reddish amber color with a decent white head. Starts with malt, which is sort of washed aside by the carbonation, allowing enough hop to somewhat balance the malt. Very nice, seems a bit malty for the style.
4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 16/20
The aroma is lightly malty with notes of caramel and hay.
Sparkling clear copper hue. Small, fizzy, khaki-colored head. Quickly and fully diminishing. No lacing.
The flavor is a little on the thin side, but this is it’s only weakness. It’s malty with a small blast of caramel up front. Well-balanced with another full blast of caramel and butter on the backside.
Light-bodied with a buttery/silky mouthfeel. Fizzy carbonation. Long, dry finish with another blast of caramel, butter and hay at the wee end. Very good beer. Pleasantly surprised.
