One of their better beers. Amber color and a creamy head from the cask pull. Hops in the aroma. Bitter, herbal hop flavor. Dry finish. Good. Light malt.

CASK: Dark Amber Color with Off White Head. Medium Mouthfeel, Nice and Creamy. Dark Grains Aroma. Dark and Dry Grain/Wheat Flavor...Sweet Malt Foundation. Vienna Malt, to be More Precise. Not Incredibly Hoppy Until It Warms Up a Bit. Some Dry Bread Notes as Well. Nice Vienna Ale.

Served on cask. Dark amber pour with a typically lovely cream head. Grapefruit and butterscotch with some chocolate mint on the nose. Unique. Seamless threads of semi-sweet chocolate accent a quieted bitter profile. The cask mellows ninety IBU’s almost too easily. Several bright citrus bursts throughout within a harsh crystal framework. Easy to drink, piquing curiosity. Distinct.
