Second tasting, good light tan head, clear amber color, not much aroma. Flavor, Malty, cracker, with floral, herbal hops, finishes with a peppery, slightly Smokey flavor. Very smooth, good mouthfeel, extremely drinkable. Need to brew this again!
Clear amber with nice tan head that lingers. Smokey aroma on first pour which fades into background and then the floral, herbal Loral hop character dominates the flavor, with a sweet, malty backbone. Very complex flavor, nicely balanced.
