The beer poured with a nice foamy head which stuck around for a whole. The beer was a nice amber color. A little darker than your standard pale ale.
Once opened, you immediately could smell the oak. Once poured into the glass, all the aromas came through. Lots of oak, orange and hops. A really complex and fantastic smell.
The flavor profile is just as good. The orange is a bit more subdued and subtle on the palate. The oak and hops are the predominant flavors and complement one another quite well. This is a really well done pale ale from a great local brewer.
In addition to some great beers, the have some of the best labels and packaging around. If they distribute in your area, check them out. Well worth it.
