Draft at Denver Chophouse. Gold bodied. Nose is malty with light lemony notes, some grass and Euro hops. Taste is more malt, grass, hops, some tea and floral notes. Body is light-medium. Mild carbonation. Some crispness to this in spots. Finishes with more malts, grass, and grassy hops.

Pours a two finger white head that fades quickly to a thin layer leaving some lace. Almost clear amber color. Light carbonation and light-medium bodied. Hoppy nose. Starts hoppy and stays that way, only slight hoppy/bitter aftertaste. $1.39 for a 12oz bottle from John’s Market Place Tigard, Or.

12 oz bottle via Arctic Liquors BOM club. pours a clear gold/copper with an average size head. Nice aroma of caramel, earth/grass. Flavors start out caramel, then some grassy hops, some lemon, and a balanced albeit watery finish. A decent ale to start a moderate fall afternoon.

Average at best, uninspiring. Still got got the Malt and hops that make it drinkable enough. Give it a try, dont expect to much

was at the rock bottom s.denver location and i figured what the hell. it’s the only thing on tap i haven’t tried so i ordered it with low expectations, and those expectations were met. poured light tan copper with a lacing white head. smells of caramel and citrus. taste is like masonry, but once i get past that it is thin and floral with a light lemon note& that’s about it. average, and unoffending for the most part.
