this makes for a nice session beer with your friends or with a nice meal, sweet malts and low-medium hop build. Its a decent beer to hang around with.

The aroma is yeasty with grassy hops and grainy malt. The appearance is amber with a decent head. The flavor is like the aroma and not special. The palate is thin. Overall it’s alright.

Pours copper brown w/ nice head and decent retention. Vanilla, caramel with figgy dried fruits come to mind. Chewy sugary body with rounded features. Distant hoppy lightly bittering echoes in the back.

Pours a slightly murky dark amber bordering on brown and sports at smallish tan quickly receding head. Aroma is displays an English style malt and light fruity hops. More like an English bitter than an Amber as described. Aftertaste is long and lightly fruity. Strong toffee notes creep in mid-glass. Well balanced and an easy drinking session ale.

Bottle. Pours a nice deep reddish amber like a well cooked lobster. Aroma is sweet and doughy with a touch of cherries(?). Taste is a bit odd, some maltiness with a fruity bite.
