Short and sweet - This beer was a GREAT drink! It smelled a little hoppy and thought it was going to be really overwhelming but it end up being really smooth. I got at great head after pouring into a glass with a nice carmel color. Great beer I wish I bought more.

Was amber in color. Nice carbonation. Hops started out nice but finish was blah. I would not get this again.
