Pours a slightly cloudy, dark amber with a thin head of large bubbles and very fast carbonation.
Fairly sweet malty smell with a noticeable yeast component, a little like fresh bread.
The taste is well balanced with an initial mildly spicy hop flavor and a slight trace of the yeast which seems to diminish as the beer warms. The beer finishes smoothly with lingering taste of malt. Overall very mild but quite refreshing. The yeast flavor doesn't detract from the experience.
The mouthfeel is smooth and clean with more carbonation than I've found in Gilroy's other beers. I could see drinking a few as the balance is fairly good.
