Pours an orangish amber with a lot of hoppy aroma. Flavor is rich malts with plenty of hops to balance it out. Not what I was expecting from a string cream ale, but good.

Pours a surprising amber/copper color with a good amount of carbonation.
Very bitter with hops, with some syrupy malt. Not that well balanced.
This isnt a bad beer, but it also wasnt what I was planning on drinking.
