Sep 15, 2009 Pours a nice translucent copper color with a nice big head that settles out to being a medium head. Aroma is nicely malty, and lightly nutty, but just a shade faint.
The flavor on the other hand is just wonderful creamy and full of roasted nuts, some citrusy hops, mildly herbal, some caramel without much sweetness at all. This is a wonderfully made lager.
