Light amber. Caramel nose with a hint of breadcrust. Pleasant fruity hop overtop of toasty amber malts and caramel.

Draft at brewpub. Pours a dark amber color with a medium head that diminished quickly. Heavy hoppy aroma. Medium body smooth texture. Good complex hoppy flavor with a moderate finish. Best of brews tasted.

On tap at the brewpub in Sarasota. Medium amber pour,slight sprucey aroma. Flavor has some grapefruity hoppy notes with a balanced malty caramel finish. Thickish mouthfeel. More ale characteristics than a lager. Pretty good.

Pours clear deep gold with off white head. Odd looking beer for an amber. The aroma is roasty malts, 90L crystal malts and some really faint caramel. The taste is nice and amber-like with rich roasty malts, a little bit of malt astringency mixing with more lightly roasted malts. All this maltiness slowly turns into Munich grainy type malts along with mild pine hoppiness and faint floral hops as the finish approaches. The hop bitterness does grow some into the finish and lingers around with sweet and roasted maltiness.

At brewpub. Clear amber with little white head. Caramel malt aromas with a smattering of Cascade-like hops, a balanced smell. Quaffable mouthfeel. Body is mainly sweet and caramelly with a bready character. Slightly spicy in finish.

This is the best one from Sarasota Brewing that I have had. The aroma is hoppy with plenty of malt. The appearance is nice much like the flavor. The flavor is very hoppy like the aroma. The palate is good for the style. I like this one.
