Clear copper with a semi-thick white head. Lightly hoppy crystal malt aroma. Dull, lightly sweet body has a mild crisp hoppy finish. Not bad for a standard amber. Clean and smooth.

Pours amber (what a shock!) with an off white head. Smells of roses and straw. Tastes malty with some chewable vitamin elements. Watery finish.
