Amber color; clear; long-lasting, frothy, eggshell colored head; tons of lacing. Aroma is fairly lame: nutty with some orange and light, floral hops. Flavor similarly lame: orange, nutty malt, light caramel, and bitter, grassy, hops. Medium to medium-light body; medium stickyness; very tiny bubbles make this almost silky. Average at best.

Clear amber of color with a off white cloudy head. An aroma of malt, nutty and orange hints. A flavor of malt, caramel and bisquit. Pretty harmless.

Nice head. Clear amber color. Head is off white and foamy. Some hops in the taste along with malts, caramel, and spices. Smell of malts, spices, and hops. Sort of plain with malts.

~Pours a light orange colour with big white head. Good lacing ~ Sweet malty scent with raisins ~ Flavor is malty sweet with some hop bitterness. A tinge of spiciness. ~ Medium palate. Sticky finish. ~ This beer isnt anything special. Just a typical malty beer. I like it though. It taste good and goes down smooth.

Bottle.Medium sized fizzy head that mostly diminished, fair amount of lacing, fast rising carbonation, transparent, and an orange hue. Nose was malty, caramel, hoppy, citrus, sweet, and slightly fruity. The flavor was hoppy, citrus, malty, caramel, sweet, and lightly bitter. Tingly mouthfeel and medium in body. A very quaffable beer, easy to drink, simple, nicely done, would drink this one again, and worthy of a try IMO despite the overall average.
