What Our Editors Thought
“Toasted bread crust in the aroma with some faint floral and citrus-blossom highlights. Rolls in soft on the palate, with a sprawling feel that quickly tightens as the light hops and bitter bread crust provide structure.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Moderate toasty and toasted bread crusts balance a light black-pepper note in the aroma. Hints of floral-spicy hops. Flavor accentuates the toasted bread crust yet has a firm bitterness. Spicy pepper notes with a hint of caramel linger in the fairly dry finish.”
What the Brewers Say
“Rich in malt with a balance of hop bitterness.”
