Hazy amber beer. Reasonably soft palate. Mild creamy malt well balanced with the hops that leave a trailing bitter edge. Easy going well balanced beer.

Bottled. Copper colour, brief head. Grassy caramel aroma. Clean, fairly hard mouthfeel. Full-medium bodied, a lightly pleasant touch of buttery malt, generously hoppy with resiny, bitter finish. A good beer, but has very little resemblance to German bock beers.
