Served in flute from 12 oz bottle.

Crystal clear deep gold body, nicely carbonated, short thick off white head, that holds for a few minutes.

Hop aroma is deep and earthy, little spicey or floral qualities.

Flavor has a rich sweet flavor and deep earthy hops. A little to much bitterness IMO. The sweetness is too apparent and doesn't taste like malt sweetness, it almost tastes like sugar. Also the hop bitterness does't seem to work. It's too one dimensional and doesn't hit the mark.

Mouth feel is good, but doesn't make up for the rest.

Drinkability is good. This could have been a fantastic beer but I don't think it is well designed.
