Decent, yet somewhat forgettable. Nice reddish bronze color. Nose is nondescript. Good malts, expected much more from the hops, calling itself a bitter.

Rusty-orange with a feeble white head and nil lacing. Aroma is full of caramel and Cascade hops with a bit of frutiness in the finish. Taste is initially bitter, becoming more flowery in the middle before a fair sweet finish.

Westmeister (569) - Atlanta, Georgia, USA - JAN 29, 2012
Cask @ Rouge pub in Portland. Pours a clear amber with wispy bubbly head. Aroma is eathy grains and faint hops. There is a touch of sweetness in the flavor from the malts that coexists with the bittering hops. There is also some fruity esters in the finish. Semi-dry finish. Good brew, but glad I tried it on cask.
