Draft. A hazy dark amber beer with a thick orangey head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of straw, and so is the flavor though also added a strong note of hops.

Pours a transparent copper ruby with a spotty-lacing off-white head. Aroma of dry toasty caramel earthy maltiness and some mild grapefruity hops. Starts with a fairly full earthy sweetness and crisp resiny bittering hops. A decent double red, but could use a little more assertive crisp hop character.

Tap at Ubertavern in Seattle: Pours a murky brown color with nice tan head and clean lacing. The nose is very crisp and hoppy with a full malty caramel note and a full bouquet of hop and light spice. The flavor is very bitter and spicy with plenty of piney and citrusy notes along with the malty parts. The finish is clean, nice. Good beer, new brewery, hmm..
