On tap at the brewery pours a lightly hazy gold with some creamy, white head. Nose has grass, some parm rind, earthy with dried lemon and dried pine, soap, a little white flour. Flavor is solid, lemon and a little tangelo, again a little salty parm, straw, grass, dried herbs. Crisp finish, just lightly soapy. An easy drinker for these guys.

This one’s pretty light on the aroma. Pours golden with decent head. Light crisp finish but not much here. Some light pine. Tap at brewery.

Very slightly hazy golden coloured body with a three centimetre tall, off-white head, that dies fairly quickly and leaves a pretty ugly lace. Aroma of very fresh herbal and tropical fruits-based hops with a good dose of alcohol and a touch of malt as well - nice and fragrant. Light to Medium-bodied; Slightly grassy and grainy with a big hop kick of herbs, flowers and tropical fruits with a little bitterness coming from the hops near the end, but fairly easy-to-drink. Aftertaste is mild and watery with some light hops, a touch of cardboardie malt and very little else, perhaps a touch sour. Overall, a decent beer, not much really going on, no real depth and only a faint sourness to draw away from a mediocre product. When faced with this option and others that seem interesting, go with the others - you aren’t missing much. I sampled this 32 ounce growler fill earlier today from Total Wine in Alexandria, Virginia on 12-December-2015 for US$5,99.

Draft pour at the Brewery. Poured a hazy yellow color with a small white head. Aroma was light floral notes, some citrus. Light tropical notes, light earth and floral hop characteristics. Good, but not as good as the Mosaic one.
