Dark golden amber with a modest head. Smells very grainy and herbaceous, keen peppery bite as well, warms up a little to yield richer apricot and peach scents, charcoal and tar, good, clean length. Tends to the fuller bodied side of the spectrum, sweeter attack with pineapple, pear, apricot fruit and a deeper floral side. Slightly more dank in the mid-palate. Carbonation adds prickle but not sustained. Pine, coal tar notes at the end. Good quaffability and doesn't try too hard.
