Growler at the RBSG grand tasting on 6/23/07: Pours a transparent copper amber with a spotty-lacing white head. Aroma of fresh, earthy piny hops and sweet lightly toasted caramel malt. Body starts with some mild sweetness drying out more toward an earthier toasty caramel maltiness and thinner bittersweet finish. Needs some more sweet malty balance.
