Orange-amber body sporting a 1" thick head--a nice looking brew. Smells more akin to an English Pale Ale with its musty hopping and restrained base malts. Musty hop flavor with an adequate base grain underpinning, Some sweetness. Good body and mouthfeel. Ok.

The aroma is a mix of English malts, light sweetness, a tad buttery, and floral, peppery, and a touch stinky like herb. Pours a nice amber golden with a lasting thin white head. The flavor is funky herbal hops, some moderated bready sweetness combined with some toast and butter. Hoppy finish is peppery and somewhat clean. Not bad, a little boring, could be a lot worse.
