A: Pours a slightly murky dark brownish amber in color with light amounts of active visible carbonation slowly rising from the bottom of the glass and some reddish brown highlights. The beer has as quarter finger tall sudsy foamy light beige head that reduces to a small very thin patch and a thin ring at the edges of the glass. Minimal amounts of lacing are observed.

S: Light to moderate aromas of toasted malts with a light amount of caramel sweetness. Light hints of herbal hops.

T: Upfront there is a moderate flavor of toasted malts with a very light amount of caramel sweetness. That is followed by light to moderate flavors of herbal hops that impart a light amount of bitterness in the finish and fades quickly.

M: Light to medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation.

O: Overall this beer is very easy to drink and well balanced - neither the hops/bitterness or malts/sweetness really dominate or linger. Low ABV makes this beer sessionable and it is rather smooth overall.
