radiomgb (1631), Peterborough, Ontario, Canada May 11, 2008 Copper in colour with a creamy white coloured head, good retention and excellent lacing. The aroma is of caramel malts, light citrus, biscuits and floral hops. The flavour is very light, some light citrus hops, light caramel sweetness, various fruits.

Sort of lackluster, lightly bitter, starts off slow but it picks up in the finish.
