Pours a deep gold with not a very large head (although I might have chilled it too much).
Aroma is malty, earthy hops, and some tobacco. The bottle claims that this brew is made with juniper berries, but I did not detect any in the nose or in the taste.
Taste has a nice malt characteristic, very earthy hops take over, and leave a somewhat oily aftertaste. Again, I could not detect any junipers. It's a shame, that's what initially drew me to this beer. Prickly and somewhat (surprising) full mouthfeel.
Somewhat disappointing. This had all the makings of an interesting beer, but all in all is rather pedestrian.

Yellow liquid with a hint of orange; murky.
Nice white head; nice, if spotty, lacing.
Slight hops, slight lager in the nose. Not much to smell.
Thin mouthfeel.
Basically tastes like a macro lager, but slightly better. Not tasting juniper berries here. Disappointing.

From notes taken 03/28/16:
Mostly clear light orange amber body, but full of minute suspended flakes. Foamy eggshell white head of moderate retention. Strong honey, resin, crackers, tea, esters on the nose, nothing to suggest juniper. Semi-tart throughout, a little papery, pine/juniper like hops, vegetal, almost rindy bitterness. A little more juniper in the aftertaste. Medium-bodied, medium carbonation with sparse prickles and abundant suds.
