A - Pours a clear deep golden brown color with a fluffy vanilla ice cream colored head. Nice lacing on the glass after the head fades.

S - Slight sweetness and noticeable hop aroma.

T - Sweet and tea-like up front with some subtle grainy biscuit flavor. Definite hop presence.

M - Thinner but very crisp and drinkable. Very dry finish that leaves me craving another sip. Overall, fits the description of the style to a "t".

Large off white head quickly dies above a clear deep amber colored beer.

The aroma is on the lighter side with light grain malts that are caramel and lightly roasted.

Toffee to roasted caramel malt taste that has a light grain aspect to it.

A slightly dryish aftertaste with a little bit of the tastes of this beer remaining with it on this medium bodied beer.

Not a remarkable tasting beer other than the fact that it is a really drinkable beer, smooth, and easy on the palette.
