12oz bottle purchased as part of the Saranac winter mixed 12-pack at Yankee Spirits, Sturbridge, MA.

Poured into a nonic, formed a 3/4" beige head over the pretty clear orangey copper brew. Head recedes slowly, with wow sticky lacing. Aroma is malty with a touch of tart.

Taste starts with grain husks, medium tart in the middle, and a balanced close. Mouthfeel is reasonably smooth, and drinkability is alright as well. Wish list of more malt depth and less tartness here.
