(12oz bottle) Medium beige head that mostly dissipates, atop crystal clear chestnut brown body. Aroma is medium sweet, caramel, nut, some fruitiness. Taste is medium sweet, earthy/grassy, some nut, finishing with chocolate and light caramel. Light-medium body, with some carbonation dancing on the tongue.

12oz bottle-pours a retaining tan head and brown/amber color. Aroma is light/medium malt-caramel/nutty, orange, husky. Taste is herbal hops press to the front through the medium malt-caramel/nutty/roasty, some orange/resin. Crisp, enjoy. thanks to Joe/jwc215.

Pours a transparent copper amber with a small, frothy, well-lacing head. Has a slightly toasted and nutty crystal malty nose with some English hops. Starts with average fullness and some biting carbonation with a touch of grapefruity bittering hops and dry, nutty malty flavors toward a crisp finish. Pretty smooth and drinkable, but nothing out of the ordinary.

Bottle... Beautiful, clear copper lager with a small, fizzy, off-white head. Nutty, malty aroma and flavor. Suggestions of chocolate, munich, caramel and crystal malts. Balanced decently by herbal hops. Medium-bodied and lightly oily with fizzy carbonation. Crisp, nutty, lightly sweet finish.

Umber color with just a hint of ruby. Taller head that seems a bit thin and wispy, but is quite stable and leaves some decent lace. Yes, it smells like an amber, with malt, caramel and bit of cloves. Dry malt flavors coupled with a lager crispness. Quite light and bland. Hints of herbal hops in the linger. Not much more than a amber lager.
