On tap at the brewery. Pours a hazy gold with no head. The aroma is grass, oak, floral. Thin body, watery, grass, lemon zest, decent.

Crisp, ever so slightly hazy golden coloured body with a peach-ish glow and a very thin, super-fast-dying pure white head. Aroma of funk, skunk, resin, grain and a dash of pure caster sugar - interesting throughout. Light-bodied; Strong skunky flavour at first with a touch of resinous and very herbal hop notes along with some grasses, weeds and a touch of spices. Aftertaste is still thin, but showing even more of the herbs and resin along with a light hop bitterness, some apple flavours (finally) and a dose of funk at the end that is very drying. Overall, a nice-ish cider with some hop flavours, but not showing enough complexity and depth from the apples alone nor from the hops to make it stand out in this category. Nice to try, given that i've liked their other products, and even though I do enjoy hops, this one wasn't one of my favourites. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Total Wine in Fairfax, Virginia on 10-September-2017 for US$2,29 sampled at home in Washington on 18-November-2017.

Draft: Clean apple nose. Bubbly hazy golden. Tangy apple flavor. Light body, moderate carbonation. Good balance, no hop character.

Poured from can dated 1/13/16 thanks Willrunforbeer. Nice golden color thin white effervescent head. Aromas of grass meadows floral notes and hop. Taste is somewhat bitter with floral herb notes overpowering the apples. Maybe less hopping and more apples.

Draft at Scion Dupont. Clear greenish gold color, small white head. Nice aroma of freshly cut grass, meadow flowers, citrus. Taste is bitter and herbal fruit. Not sure about this one - I like the aroma augmentation from the hops but not the bitterness.
