Opened with a huge hiss...and this bottle has been on a shelf for a couple months now. Pours a lightly hazy amber with golden highlights and a huge foamy off white head that left a bunch of lacing. Aroma of fruits, mixed citrus, some caramel, toffee, Flavor was lots of tingly carbonation, yeast, mixed fruits, toffee, toasted malts. I think some infection was settling in on this beer based on how carbonated it was in addition to all the fruity esters.

12 oz bottle. Hazy amber in color with a huge tan head. Aroma of sweet caramel, toffee, and bread. Taste is pretty sweet with caramel and toffee- hardly any hop character or bitterness to balance. Carbonation was very heavy and abrasive on the tongue and throat. This was definitely a bit old. perhaps re-rate on a fresher bottle or draft.

Poured a translucent amber with orange hues and an active, frothy head that settles to one finger on the top. Aroma is balanced between malt and American hops. Flavor is very similar with yeasty, biscuit notes more reminscent of a Belgian than an American. Mouthfeel and finish were rather fizzy, they may have gone a bit overboard on the carbonation. I’ve had worse, not many though.

pours lighter than expected, but definitely an amber tone. Aroma is tangy malt and sweet carmel. Flavor is rather full, definite sweet toasty malt flavors but also a decent hop bitterness at the end. Nice finish in the combo of a sweet malt and a nice lingering dry bitterness.

12oz bottle @ Prism Gallery/Restaurant in Rockport Maine. Pretty pour, copper with a big 2 and half finger fading cream head. Aroma is rich, frothy bitter nose. Taste is rich and seet, with a slight bitterness. Great Lager, pretty tasty. The bees flying around the garden seemed to be attracted to it as well.
