Smokey malt hop aroma with chemicals. Murky red amber colour with poor head and lacing. Sweet malt hop flavour with fruit. Fizzy palate.

My first beer from this brewer. Poured a hazy reddish orange with a thin head, but it may have been a problem with the glass. Malty aroma with accents of hops. Good balance of malts and hops in the taste. Flavors of biscuits, followed by some citrus. Medium bodied, very nice carbonation, and the hops lingered in the aftertaste.

Pours an aptly described amber color with a white head. Minimal aroma of malts and fruit. Taste of nice combination of malts, fruit and just a hint of bitterness.

Bottle. Deep amber color with a small off white head. Mildly bitter aroma with a tart fruit presence of grapes and cherries. Taste has a nice bitterness and slightl fruity accent. Nice body and texture, thin carbonation. Very good.

Had out of the bottle poured nicely with good sized head but fizzed out quickly. Sweet flavor with mellow finish. Average lager for everyday consumption.
