Appearance has a dark ruby red color supporting a healthy head leaving fair lace. Smell has a sweet grainy malt aroma supported by light hops. Taste has a hoppy astringent flavor hanging more into the IPA range supported by the darker specialty malts. Mouthfeel is medium with good carbonation.

Nice full, rocky head, light amber in color, sweet fruity nose, hints of candy, caramel in the taste, some lingering pine bitterness on the palate. Might be too sweet for some NW palates.

Poured from 12oz bottle into a pint glass.
Appearance: deep amber hue with a rather murky body. Head is a thin finger of creamy tan foam with just a little hint of an amber cast. Actually quite nice.
Smell: citrusy hop character with a somewhat sweet caramel note underneath. Simple, but nicely executed.
Taste: smooth caramel up front, followed by some slightly toasty and biscuity malt flavors. The hops then chime in, quite citrusy (more lemony than grapefruity) in character. Bitterness is moderate and quite reasonable for the style. It's actually working for me.
Mouthfeel: very smooth and creamy; I quite like it.
Overall: this is a drinkable amber without a lot of complexity, but clearly made with care.

Pours a finger on a hazy dark red colored body.
The aroma is a bold malt smell. Perfect match.
The taste is a sharp lemon bitter with a good malt balance and a long dry finish.
The texture is crisp with moderate carbonation.
It's nice and bold brew.
