On tap:
Copper and seemingly color-translucent. Head ends in thin ring but leaves some lacing.

Nose is metallic bitterness, which to me is what I expect from the style. Could be a little more bitter, though.

Taste is malty but also lightly fruity - berry in nature - up front. Classic grassy bitterness grabs going into the ending, but doesn't quite get strong enough.

Little sweet, but I like the berry notes I perceive. Could be a little lighter and more bitter in the end. Happy to not have that copper/metallic note cone through in the flavor, however.
