Not that I would know, but it tastes like weed.

Daffodil nose. Hazy golden, medium head. Fully floral flavor of daffodils, to the exclusion of all else save for other floral types. Medium body, but completely devoid of a malt presence. No offense intended, but this is hop tea.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy pale yellow color with a large foamy yellow-white head that left a bit of lacing. The aroma was skunky with floral hops and perfume. The flavor was bitter, dry, perfumey and chalky. Medium length finish. Light body. Awful!

Clear golden coloured body with a touch of a haze and a thinnish, single centimetre tall just off-white rather soapy head. Aroma of alcohol, light malt, a touch of sugar and not much else. Light-bodied; Sharp pungent malt flavours with some noticeable hop bitterness and hits of pine with not much behind and a lack of balance. Aftertaste shows the bitterness from the hops coming through with a bit of alcohol, but no sweetness or malt depth at all. Overall, a pretty one-dimensional beer with no malt body coupled with a little bit of hops and bitterness and nothing else. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Whole Foods in Washington (Foggy Bottom - I Street), DC on 11-November-2014 for US$2,49 sampled at home in Washington on 29-December-2014.

12 ounce bottle from Wegman’s Lake Manassas. Pours a clear golden with a thin fizzy head. Poor head retention. Aroma of doughy malt, caramel, stone fruits, spicy and herbal hops. The taste is herbal, pine, resin hops, apple, doughy malt. Thin-medium bodied, moderate lingering bitterness. Needs to be dialed in more.

Pint pour on draft at Mad Fox. Poured a clear golden color, with a long lasting nice fluffy white head. By long lasting, I mean it lasted the entire time I drank it. Very impressed. Bubbles were vigorous, consistent, and about perfect. Light crisp lager and yeast notes. Light pine, some lemon. Very tasty, wish more lagers tasted like this.

12oz bottle pours a clear, straw gold with some sudsy, lacing white head. Nose has some nice grassy notes, lemon, some mild tangerine, lightly piney, lightly vegetal. All fairly approachable. Flavor is the same, the malt is of the lightly dough, lightly gristy type, the lemon takes over, some orange, some pine, some soap. Clean finish. Lightly bitter. Crushable.
