12/27/07. Aroma of spicy hops with some spiciness and malt notes apparent as well. Amber/orange. Slightly hazy. Off-white head with decent retention and lacing. Malt in forefront with medium crystal malt caramel flavors and some juicy melanoidin notes in the background. Well-balanced by a spicy hop flavor and moderate hop bitterness. Medium-bodied with good carbonation level.
