Caramel notes, light in body, color is nice and is priced lower than expected. Good buy and a solid Amber.

Pours amber. Foamy, short, off white head that fades shortly
Smells toasted malt, caramel malt, bready hints and hint of grain.
Tastes Caramel and toasted malt, light bready and grainy. Finish is dry with a light earthy bitterness. Lighter medium body and fizzy medium carbonation.

Draft: Poured an amber color ale with a nice foamy head. Aroma of light caramel malt notes is OK. Taste is a mix of caramel malt with light dry cereal notes. Body is about average with good carbonation. OK but missing some character.
