Pours a clear amber color with an off-white head. Aroma is too sweet and too malty with virtually no hop aroma. Dark fruit and caramel malts are also present. Flavor is malts and plenty of them. I get only a very slight bitterness from hops on the finish but it’s not very balanced at all. I’ll never drink this again.

on tap-pours a thin off white head that laces and amber color. Aroma is medium malt, secondary hops. Taste is medium malt-caramel, slightly bitter citrus/pine-hops. Medium body. OK carbonation.

Floral nose of caramel & wheat, light citrus. Very fresh but subtle. Pours a sparkling copper. The super creamy/frothy off white head is mostly lasting with fair lace. The brew has great balance, with moderate acidity and a warm alcoholic middle. Kinda non-descript, but would make a fine session offering. The medium body is soft to lively and very creamy. The finish is somewhat astringent.

Draft at the Safeco Field brewpub. Pours medium/dark coppery amber, clear, with scant white head and decent sheets of lace on the way down. Medium body, light carb, moderately assertive flavors. Mid-palate shows some light spice and a cloying brown bread sweetness and a touch of aluminum. Light yeasty sourness in the finish.

Bottle. Pours a nice orange with a off-white head. The taste is quite hoppy and has some floral aroma and taste. A sweet malt, and overall a thin body also. Not bad.

Draft: Pours a true amber with a small beige head and decent lacing. Nose is mild of caramel, malt, and hops. Tasted hoppier than I expected, a decent amount of hops with caramel, malts, and light floral tones. Not bad at all.

From a twelve ounce bottle purchased aT "kELLER’S IGA" in Cincinnati, Ohio - This one pours a ruddy amber liquid with a sweet, malty taste, and a tall, just off-white head. Tastewiose, it’s good, but could use a bit more body.

Bottle. Poured deep red amber with lasting foamy white head. Faint biscuity aroma. Malty body but rather thin. Hopped finish that doesn’t make up for the thin body. A fairly ordinary ale.
