Pours slightly opaque but clear around the edges as the beer is dark. Off-white foam is a finger thick. Retention and lacing are minimal.
Lots of malt on the nose. Caramel, toffee, toast, and bread. Not overwhelmingly sweet smelling though. Good balance between the malts. Floral initially becoming more fruity as it warms (yeast?).
Taste is almost identical to the nose. Caramel, toffee and bread carry this beer. The fruitiness leans more towards the yeast than hops. No bitterness. Not cloying either. A bit dry.
Medium body with lighter carbonation, on purpose, to help dry the beer and keep the mouth feel from growing.
An average beer. Nothing is wrong with it. Preference is towards modern amber ales with a solid hop presence (red IPA). Wouldn't have it again but, once again, an average to slightly above average offering. Enjoy!
