Mid amber - good lacing. The aroma is mistly toasty malts. Flavour: not much hopping - toast / caramel - distinct metalic aftertaste

On tap, into a tulip glass. Pours caramel-copperish color with a slight haziness and very little head retention. No lacing as well. Very fluid and light mouthfeel. Dry. Caramel notes upfront, followed by pleasantly tasty herbal and fruity hops. Not among the most bitter I have ever tried in this genre. A very sessionable brew, refreshing and easy-to-drink. Would surely drink again.

Draft: Poured a light amber color ale with a medium foamy head with OK retention and no lacing. Aroma consists of caramel malt with light dry hoppy notes. Taste is also dominated by light dry caramel notes with light subtle dry hops finish. Body is about average with good carbonation. Not the most interesting style in my opinion but well brewed nonetheless.

Enjoyed on tap at the brewpub. I particularly like this brewpub's hoppy beers. No odour. Good lacing on medium golden colour. Dry hop taste. Not great for its style, but decent drinkability and palate cleanser from the vegetable and yeasty series of the product line.Average mouthfeel.

Presented with a cloudy copper brew that had little head and really didn't leave any lacing, looked fine though
Smell was sweet malt with a cider like hint
Tastes was sweet malt again with the cider presence but also a strong caramel presence
Mouthfeel was medium to light carbonation was spot on for the style
Drinkability this would be the perfect pub brew and you could definitely through a few back with your buddies and have a great night
