Light amber color, clear. Very good lace as I drink it down. A thin layer of bubbles last throughout, while the initial pour provided a moderate head.

Dry maltish aroma with a strong off aroma of beef stew.

This is a hoppy beer, which covers up the astringent malt. Very dry, yet creamy. Good body and carbonation.

Not my style, but the hop picks up the taste enough to make it drinkable.

Nice amber / copper color with decent head and mild to moderate carbonation. Mild fruity and caramel aroma. Bitter metallic and candy notes with a hint of caramel nuttiness and sweet alcohol in the background. It kind of falls flat a bit. Finishes with a bit more alcohol and floral notes.

12 oz bottle was poured into a pint glass.

Appearance: This beer poured a one finger head that has reduced and left some nice lacing on the glass and a thin layer of foam. It is a crimson color with great clarity and bubbles coming up through the glass. Super lacing on the glass as the beer was drank.

Smell: sweet caramel and bready malts followed by some mild hop aromas.

Taste: bready and grainy malts, caramel sweetness, and mild hop bitterness in the end.

Mouthfeel: a bit chewy, medium carbonation, medium bodied, smooth, and very drinkable.

Overall: I have loved this beer for years and so happy to have drank another again. Maestro, one more beer please.
