Medium orange amber. Sweet caramel malts, slight citric hops. Flavor and nose match. Not bad. Perhaps not as aggressively hoppy as intended, but enjoyable.

Dark orange-red, whitish cover. Citrusy, herbal hop aroma, fruit, apples, caramel. Taste is herbal, hops, almost pine and resin, caramel sweet body.
