Bottle. Amber with a small off-white head. Aromas are sweet toffee and caramel malts. Fruity with gentle hopping. Flavours are soft malts, especially caramel, with some fruit and yeast. Slightly sour with hints of chocolate. Has light grapefruit bitterness towards the finish. A good malty beer.

Bottle. Not too bad, some nutty, malty bitterness, with some light caramel. Finish quite bitter and slightly green in character, pretty decent stuff.

Bottle. Slightly hazy amber color. The initial pour gave a 1/2 inch of beer and 7 inches of off white foam. Had to wait patiently for the foam to go down before I could even get a decent sniff. Spicy hops aroma with sweet apples backing it up. Flavor begins with caramel malt and blends quickly into a toffee sweetness and piney bitterness. Medium bodied, creamy on the palate with a slight yeast tingle on the tongue. This one is definitely not meant to be drunk ice cold but is excellent at the right temperature.

Pours a cloudy amber color with a frothy offwhite head. Aroma of spicy hops and caramel. Flavor of spicy hops and caramel. The body is light with an oily texture and low carbonation. Entertains while waiting for the main course.

Hazy medium orange, head way too big no matter what I tried when pouring. Aroma was bread and some moldy floral hops. Flavor was bread, anise hops, almost seedy somehow. As it warmed, a bit of caramel arrived. Did not care for the hop profile of this at all.

Cloudy amber with a fluffy tan head.
Despite careful pour I still ended up with yeast floaties in the glass.
Head disapates slowly leaving small patches of lace.
Aroma is mostly caramel, with some light woodieness.
Flavor is lightly caramel with a citrus zest finish.
