The aroma is malty and slightly hoppy with notes of caramel and grass and occasionally something grainy. The appearance is amber with a medium head that fades quickly. The taste is like the aroma with malts upfront and a lingering bitter sweetness. The flavor is balanced and neither too sweet nor too dry. The palate is average for the style. Overall there is stuff to like in this beer and the only thing I didn't dig was a touch of astringency.
