<b>On tap at all three Elysian locations over the past few years.</b> Pours an almost perfect amber hue for this kind of brew. Small retentive white head. Aroma is lots and lots of sweet tender malts with a bit of fruits tossed between. Flavor is fairly sweet in the malt factory, while also being quite caramely at the same time. A tiny bit of roast is found towards the finish which ends strongly hoppy, and lingers. Pretty good for an amber.
