Thanks to MrVonzipper for the opportunity to look at this beers AWESOME label

Look: Deep orange/copper color with a 1/4 inch head and ok retention

Smell: Very muted notes of caramel and toffee

Taste: Caramel malt brown sugar and toffee not alot going on here

Mouthfeel: Silky smoooth low carbonation and a medium body

Overall: The best part of this beer besides the label is the mouthfeel and thats not what I'm looking for in a beer

12 oz 2020 bottle from the Wall of Beer in Clemson SC ($1.99) served in a lager glass.
Looks good but has a somewhat weak head.
Aroma. Above average for the style with near perfect balanced of hops to malts and bitter to sweet. Harmonious light spice notes mix with the caramel and bread notes from the malts.
Flavor. Less harmonious and more earthy.

Look: It has a medium orange color and pours a bit cloudy. It has a mostly white head that doesn't last long.

Smell: There is a malty, toasted aroma.

Taste: It has a toast malt flavor with grass and hay compliments.

Feel: Is is medium light bodied in feel with moderate hop bitterness on the palate.

Overall: It is a malt lager with a clean character and simple, but effective flavoring.
