3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 degbert (1444) - Austin, Texas, USA - SEP 1, 2015
Can. Pours a deep amber with a shallow, thin, fine-grained cream-colored head. Nose is stone fruit, spice, white pepper, caramel, and grapefruit. Some toffee and peach sweetness up front, then shifts into a peppery grapefruit and herbs bitterness on the midpalate. Nice prickly carbonation on the tongue, with good dryness. The finish is long, dry, with just a touch of citrus malt. Quite a nice amber ale. I could drink a lot of these.

This is bitter for the style. It pours well and looks good. It has the malt base for the bitterness. Good but not my favorite way of doing the style.
