Lightly hazed amber appearance, good head formation. Earthy aroma, mild tropical fruit and citrus. Initial malty, earthy palate, turning to mildly bitter grapefruit citrus in the finish. Decent session beer.

Bottled 0,65ltr from brewpub (different label than in the photo)
Slightly hazy honeyish golden color, small white head. Yeast, caramel, nutty maltyness, honey. Medium-bodied, low bitterness. Ryeish, berryish, sweetish nutty flavor. Quite odd brew and flatish bottle.

22 oz bottle. Hazy amber/orange with a medium dense head. Aroma of biscuits and lemon mostly with some light caramel and flowers. The flavor is smooth and malty with a mellow hop bitterness coming in at the end. Medium body with average carbonation and a clean finish. Solid ESB, rich and malty with a nice hop character.

Bottle. Slightly hazed golden pour, big loose white head. Very mild floral and caramel aroma. Tastes a little sweet and caramelly, a touch fruity, and becomes very floral and a mildly bitter on the finish. Not too remarkable, but has a nice mellow, balanced flavor.

Had a taste platter at the Harmon in downtown tacoma. This one was on it. Good dark beer with a heavy taste. One of my favorites at the Harmon

On tap at Harmon Restaurant, pours clear copper. Aroma of bitter malt, English hops and light floral notes. Flavour of muted caramel malt and hops. Generic.

Pours amber with a light white head. Light floral aroma. Medium body; foamy carbonation. Flavor is spicey caramel with fruit and a lot of floral. It comes out quite bitter. Just delicious.

Some times I am a man of few words. This beer was OK.
