Murky semi-brownish gold with a creamy lacy white head. Sticky resinous aroma of sticky hops, over-sweet caramel and pancake batter. Flavor starts a little vegetal, which I don’t care for, blends into sweet toffee and sweet caramel, with a subtle floral bitterness, which quickly turns back to vegetal sweetness. Definitely not for me. Too sweet and vegetal.

Ontap at Strange Brewing poured a clear amber with a lasting amber head. Aromas of bread, carmel, fruittiness and light earthiness. Palate was medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of bread, earthiness, light carmel and light fruittiness with a smooth finish.
