12 oz. bottle. Pours a clear copper color with a low off-white head that diminishes quickly. Little to no lacing. Very little aroma at first but as it warms, a nice surprise of bisquity malt goodness arises from the glass. Flavor has an earthy, grassy bitterness balanced by a malty sweetness. Light to medium bodied. Soft carbonation. Medium-dry finish. I definitely started this one out too cold. It really developed as it warmed.
