Dark copper color with a moderate, creamy taupe head. Distal alert. Lots of butterscotch in the nose along with caramel and a hint of herbal hops. Caramel, light earth, peaches and herbs in the flavors. An English ale with some German accents.

Served on draught at the Wisconsin Micro-brewers Beerfest in Chilton, Wisconsin. Pours a semi-clear light caramel amber brew with a fast dissolving white head that leaves behind a thin white ring and no film top. Aroma of dry caramel malt, some flowery hops with a touch of dry herbal spice. Taste is medium bodied, light carbonated with some dry caramel malt flavors and a touch of honey. Finish is semi-dry, crisp and nearly clean cut with hardly no aftertaste.

On tap at F.R. Appleton. Poured a clear, light caramel color with a short cap of white head. Sweet malts provided a nice base for mild floral hoppage in the aroma... caramel throughout, and berries showed up as the brew warmed. Same thing in the flavor... caramel and berry sweetness and a mild floral bitterness.. also found a nice honey presence in there. Smooth malty middle with diacetyl presence on the edges that wasn’t too welcome. Decent brew and I liked the assortment of flavors.
