Serve in Lager glass

Reddish amber with a tan head. Powerful and pleasant malt aroma, very nice. Mouthful is creamy, and the flavour starts sweet and fruity with a well-balanced bitter finish. It's always nice to find an unknown beer that turns out to be this good.

Candied malt aroma, amber, with a medium sized toffee head, and some nice lace. Bitter/sweet malt flavour, some caramel too, nutty aftertaste. Almost a full bodied beer, pleasantly bitter, a very good one.

Light amber w/ attractive tan head. Fresh malty nose w/ leafy hop notes. Firm, slightly resiny body. Good malty character w/ some butterscotch & caramel (though perhaps a little cloying as the beer warmed). Nice earthy hop finish.
