Bottle from Candia Rd Crystal clear deep yellow color with a decent sized bubbly white head. Citrus earthy minty hop nose with some bready crackery malt beneath it. Flavor follow the aroma with a solid lingering bitterness in the finish. Mash up between an ipa and a steam beer, it kind of works.

Dandelion, butter, and honey nose. Clear amber, thin head. Honey and dandelion. Medium body, moderate carbonation. Nice balance. Tasty, interesting hopping for the style.

Pours a nice amber from a bottle, little lacing. Sweet aroma, sort of a honey sweet malty wheat biscuit flavor, but with a little stinky foot mixed in. Kind of weird, but okay I guess.

Treated as a California Common (and had two glasses worth), this was poured into a pint glass.
The appearance was a transparent yellow color with a one finger white foamy head that stuck around for a good minute and a half. Light lacing clings to the side of the glass.
The smell takes in some sweet corn glossing over some light sweet breadiness and then some light sweet grassiness.
The taste copied the smell adequately. Dries out in the flavor. Slight biscuity aftertaste. Dry sweet finish.
On the palate, this one sat a light on the body with a dry sessionable feel to it. Not wet like a normal \"Cali Common\" I’m used to. Carbonation seems to hit fine.
Overall, as a California Common, it just seems way too dry. Pretty sure if I was going for the style, I’d rather have Anchor’s before this. And probably Simple Roots (VT) and Three Heads (NY) before this. No go, Otter Creek, sorry guys, try again.

Pours light gold into a shaker. Bright white head with medium retention recedes leaving spot lacing. Tropical fruit and butterscotch aromas. Sharp with butterscotch upfront turning to mango and bitter earth in the lasting finish.
