Bottle. Poured copper with an off-white head that settled to a ring and left light lace. Initial aroma of light skunk clears to grain and caramel. The flavor found toasted malts. Medium body and sweet aftertaste.

12oz bottle. Poured a amber with a small, white head. Aroma is caramel malt and piny hops. Body is quite thing. Flavor was a big disappointment – stale, earthy hops. May be I’ll rerate it when I have a chance.

0.33 l bottle. Reddish brown colour, creamy head, average carbonation. Sweetish malty and fruity smell. Taste is sweet and light sharp, body’s medium. Flavour’s fruity and of roasted malt. The finish’s hoppy bitter and dry at last. Good one.

12 oz. bottle. Acquired at Trader Joe’s. Pours an off white, lasting head with some lacing, over a clear, amber (SRM 10) body.....nose is light roasted malts, bread, cereal......taste is sweet roasted malts toffee/caramel, then cereal, finishing with a light, lingering bitterness....mouth feel is medium as is carbonation. This is a pleasant, simple, but also "An easy drinking pint".

Bottle. Poured a dull red with an off white head. Aroma has some earthy notes as well as some roasted notes. Roasted notes are more apparent in the flavor with a bit of bitter hops at the finish.
