The latest Foothills Series offering, as summer wanes. An industry pint at Oliver Square.

This beer appears a clear, medium bronzed amber hue, with one finger of thin foamy beige head, which settles quite quickly, leaving a low berm of shoreline lace around the glass.

It smells of mild biscuity, bready malt, some ashy fruitiness, and understated leafy, earthy hops. The taste is sharp biscuity, grainy malt, a twinge of raw tobacco, some oily nutty notes, and earthy, musty hops.

The bubbles are a tad tightly wound, the body a decent medium weight, with a metallic, almost hoppy edge that precludes any lofty smoothness ideals. It finishes rather dry, the biscuit malt, nuts, and lingering hops tightening right up.

A rather tasty rendition of this uncommon (heh) style. Good for a go when Anchor's supplies dwindle here in 1000-plus beerland.
