Pours a orange amber color, 1 1/2 inch head white creamy head, good lacing all the way down.

Malted grain mixes well with the sweet malt, good hop presence, very American. Slightly biscuity.

Toasted grains mixed with hops, slight chocolate undertone, green grass.

Feel is decent, a little heavier than I would like for an apa, drinkability is very good, could have many more but I had to drive home.

Purchased at the brewpub, and was presented in a cobalt blue glass 1/2 growler with a swing-top lid.

Poured into an imperial pint glass, a frothy 1/2" head formed over the light amber hued liquid. Good lacing. Light aroma of pale malts and slight hops. Well balanced malts and hops tastes, tending towards the sweeter malt flavor. Mouthfeel is excellent, and the drinkability, not surprising for an ale made for the Grads, is superb.
