I had a couple pints of this last weekend at John Harvard's in Harvard Square. It was such a nice day I decided to walk from Kendall to Harvard and get a beer.
Appearance: Pours a nice, lightly-hazy, amber-copper. It's topped by a dense, thin, off-white head that fades to a thin layer leaving sheets of lace.
Smell: Lightly malty with a nice hop aroma. Toasty with notes of caramel, and fruit. The hop aromas are herbal and resiny. Swirling really brings out the caramel and fruity aromas.
Taste: Bready and toasty upfront with caramel and fruity sweet flavors appearing in the center. The finish is a nice mix of herbal, grassy and resiny hops that impart their flavors first before a mildly bitter finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied, low carbonation, smooth, a little sticky.
Drinkability: Mild, but enough flavor to keep you interested. Definitely a session beer.
