Golden-red. Good carbonation, low head. Hints of chocolate aroma, fair amount of brown malt and spicy hops. Good body and good mix of flavors. Caramel, brown, chocolate, hop flavor, pretty fair bitter finish.

Dark yellow opaque, good head, high carbonation. Sweet-candy aroma...like some Bocks. Vaguely reminds me of Spaten Oktoberfest in flavor, but not as heavy. More grainy-malt flavor. OK bitter finish. "Handcraft Brewed - Fresh Malted Barley and Golden Hops." (Golden hops...?) $5.59 per 22-oz bottle!
