Pours clear gold into a willi. White head with little retention crackles as it recedes to hug rim. Caramel and sourdough aromas. Spritzy with sweet bubblegum and banana front to back. Medium length banana finish. Weird.

Canned 9/16/25, drunk 10/21/25.
Light golden-blonde. Small-to-medium, white head, moderate retention.
Mineral and herbaceous hop with a bit of honey and biscuit-like malt with a touch of waxiness to it. Pepper and pencil shavings lingering.
Slightly fruity, very biscuity/crackery with more of the slight wax from the nose. White bread-like sweetness through the middle ending on mildly grassy, mildly herbal hops that exhibit low bitterness. Starts out with strong flavors, minerality, herbaceous hops, but sort of runs out of steam, ending rather watery and abruptly with crackery, underdeveloped malt.

Draft at legal seafood Logan airport. Deep golden and fairly clear small head. Nose is grains hint of lemon. Tastes of grains, malt, bready, lemon. Crisp bodied.
