12oz bottle. Pours a dark gold with a frothy white head. Slightly bitter earthy citrus hop aroma. Taste is malty with a citrus earth hop balance. A decent EPA and much better on cask, if you can get it.

Bottle...Mediocre for the style, too much bittering hops and not enough flavor or aromatic hops. Still, this is drinkable.

Pours a nice dark gold color with a small white head. Aroma of caramel malt, bread, hops. Flavor is caramel malt and a little hop bitterness along with floral notes. Middle of the road, but not bad by any means.

Very light. The pour was a coppery color. Has a bready..almost buttery taste to it. Not bad.

Bottle. Pours a medium gold with 2 finger fluffy white head and clumpy spotty lacing. Nose is malt, bread and a touch of citrus hops. Taste pretty much follows suit with the aroma. There’s a bit more citrus hop in the finish than the nose lets on. Medium mouth feel. Not terrible.
