Look-It pours a tan or off-white foamy head that looks very smooth. It has a dark copper brown color, almost like a cola and is semi-transparent.
Smell-It smells mostly malty and nutty.
Taste-It has a prominent toasted malt flavor and a little bit of a grassy hop overtone. There is also a powdery, mineral flavor at the end. It is medium-bodied with a refreshing rinse.
Overall-This is a good beer. It reminds me a bit of an improved version of fat tire. Good job, Old Ox!

The beer pours a frothy off-white head that dissipates but leaves a nice film on the surface. The beer itself is a clear copper with a good metallic hue to it.
The smell has a nice moderate caramel note with a metallic hop bitterness to it and a bit of toasted malt.
The taste is good. It's a bit more bitter and toasted than the smell but still has the same noticeable caramel note with a slightly stronger hop note. There is also a good metallic minerality to it as well.
The feel has a medium body with a slight stickiness to it.
Overall, this is a pretty after work beer that has complexity but isn't overly trying on a person's tastes.
