Can courtesy of rustychiles. Pours copper with a thin white head. Smells of earth, tea. Tastes of caramel, grassy, light spicy iced tea finish.

BOTTLE: amber pour, must / malt / metal components, a little dull, not very interesting.

Bottle. Amber pour with a short off-white head. Aroma is malty and bready with caramel notes and light spicy notes. Taste is spicy hops, grass, caramel, malt and grains. Light metallic hint as well (iron). Maybe blood. Not offensive, though. Body is light-medium and kind of chewy despite the overly bubbly carbonation. Ends with more bread, caramel, sweet malt, grassy and spicy hops and perhaps a hint of toffee.

Low rating from ratebeer users for an award winning beer. This amber lager with a minimal head and spiced aroma is sweeter and spicier than many dark lagers. It’s unusual but I wouldnt call it sessionalbe. It’s worth a try

Bottle. Pours an amber body with an off white head. Lagered notes, metallic with hints of mothy sweetness and bittering hops. Grain husk and dry bitterness. I hated it.

12oz bottle. Pours clear copper in color with thin off white head which does not last long. Aroma roasted malt and sweet. Taste roasted malt and nothing else with bitter finish.

Bottle Pours a clear amber with a decent off white head. The head deminishes quickly. No real seen lacing. Aroma is musty sweet. Some malt presence. Has a good carbonation. The flavor is slow starting but hits you in the middle some spiciness. Has a watery texture and a light body. The finish is okay and leaves a touch of decent aftertaste. This is a refreshing easy drinking beer. Not spectacular but pretty good.

Sampled from bottle: Pours a translucent amber colour with a small white head. Aroma is kind of dull, not much to pick out except for some lightly roasted malts. Taste is a little thin at first but picks up mid palate with a very clean nutty and refreshing finish.
