This dark copper ale poured with a decent beige head and a toffee aroma. There is a thin caramel flavor with significant hop bitterness. There is nothing special about this beer.

Aroma of malt and not much of that, Mild hoppiness and more malt. Kinda boring and overpriced. Won’t buy this again.

Draught sample. Pours copper/mahogany with an off white head. Smells of earth, some sweet malt, peppery, some floral hints, caramelly. Enjoyable.

Non descript nose and lacking in interesting eye appeal. Slight sweet hop bitterness and chewy malt flavor.

Bottle. Pours a dark amber color with a small off white head. Nose is malty up front with some grassy notes as well. Palate is medium with a velvet touch. Flavors are mostly caramel malts and some sweetness with a light hop note in the finish.

(bottle - 12 oz) Copper color with almost no head and very light carbonation. Aroma is very malty with lots of buttery toffee notes. Flavor begins slightly sweet with a rather significant hop presence before moving to a floral and hoppy middle, almost reminiscent of an IPA. Finishes with light toffee notes that mix in with the bitterness that lingers on the palate.
