Pours a slightly hazy bright medium amber, really a lovely, attention-grabbing presence in the glass. Thick white head falls quickly to the lightest of thin foam and bitsy suds. Moderate woody nose with some gentle tangerine and mandarin orange notes sweetening it up a bit. Creamy medium body. Woody, resiny hop presence with biscuit and just the faintest touches of citric hops on the mid-palate. Longish woody finish. mar (1740), Rowlett, Texas, USA Dec 12, 2008 bottle thanks to ilovedarkbeer. golden pour with a white head. nose of alcohol, hops and some malts. nice on the palate with a creamy hop flavor. nice finish of hops and alcohol.
