On tap at Yard House, San Antonio, TX. Pours amber with fluffy white head and nice lacing. Aroma is of herbal hops, ripe fruit and caramel malt. Body is medium and crisp. Herbal hops dominate the palate with caramel malt and red fruit in the background. Finish is long and hoppy. OK brew.

Appearance: Hazy medium amber in color, with a robust, somewhat coarse off-white head, which retains well. Scattered, patchy lacing adorns the glass walls.
Aroma: Dark caramel, toffee, toasted malt, and herbal hops dominate the aroma.
Taste: The taste begins with burnt caramel, toffee, and a strong flourish of herbal hops. AS the taste progresses, a toasted dark bread note presents, along with rather earthy herbal hops. Finishes with a lingering, mild herbal bitterness.
Mouth feel: Smooth and full, with just a hint of stinging carbonation.
Drinkability/notes: Very pleasant, reminds me a bit of the bottled version of New Belgium Fat Tire.
Presentation: Packaged in a standard twelve-ounce aluminum can, served in a Columbian-made (Cristar) Pilsener glass

Had it on draft at the Nao restaurant in San Antonio, a great place by the wat. It is a beautiful clear reddish brown with a creamy foamy head. Nice lacing as well. The taste was very good, slightly bitter but also with malty smoothness. It was an excellent compliment to the meal!

Definitely an amber/red hybrid. Pours a deep copper with decent head. Malty sweet smell that I liked. Flavor is caramel and a little citrus. Overall I really like this but I prefer ambers.
