Aroma of light malt and some floral notes, golden amber, small off-white head.. Flavour is fine malt, with some nice fruit overtones. Light bodied, very well balanced, tiny tongue tingle, quite drinkable. Very good.

UPDATED: MAY 23, 2010 bottle conditioned. The bottle had some grandpha theme , not very marketable . Aroma is grassy ..with some resins covered over peach esters ...maltiness is very ovbious. FLAVAZ. Ok nothing exciting . Dry palate . Tangy bitter hoppiness. Some peach ester as in the aroma ..chewey sweet malt.: Oily texture on the palate . Plesant ,eazy drinking , but too safe for me to really appreciate.
