Pouring a golden amber as beautiful as the treasure from a pharoah's tomb, it offers only a very little head. Initially upon the inhale I am a little dissapointed by a slightly iron metallic scent that I'm attributing to the hops used to bitter this beer. Further exploration reveals hints of honey and floral spicy aroma. Happily this combination is what carries onto the tongue. Lightly floral and honey with a mild grainy finish. Balancing nicely between light and malty it is bittered nicely. It is only my opinion so for whatever that is worth, I think they chose the wrong hops for this beer. I do not know what the story or inspiration is so who am I to judge but I think it could have been far better had the used a different one. Unique and tasty it falls short of being excellent but remains enjoyable anyway. A bit forgettable.
