Growler shared downtown during RBWG 2014 - Asheville Late-Nite. Sourced from the brewery. Cheers! Pours clear gold with a bubbly, white head. Dry wheat and grass in the aroma. Light sweet flavour with crisp, dry wheat, mellow bitterness, hay. Light bodied with average carbonation. Moderately sweet on the finish, with a bit of dry dough, wheat, more hay. Lovely, easy-drinking beer.

Draught at Lord Hobo 1/26/14
Very clear appearance with a staunch white head. Pale gold body.
Moderate esters in the nose provide peach, apricot and a touch of banana. Some dry, spicy hops add a touch of bitterness and there’s a little bit of an almost lactic-like creamed-wheat. Not a very strong aroma.
All the problems the Valley Buckwheat had this one lacks. It’s much "cleaner", completely free of sediment and not chewy or sweet at all. But unfortunately, it just seems very lackluster and "hard" for lack of a better term. Sharp, bitter, not overly flavorful hops are very astringent, as the malts are stark, lightly sweet and the yeast provides lightly acidic esters and phenols on the fininsh. Fresh on draft, but if I didnt know better, I’d think this thing had sat around for a month or two. Carbonation is loose leading to wateriness on the finish. More sharpness on the end.

Growler shared by Leighton at RBWG 2014, thanks! Pours a clear gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a lot of earthy and musty grain with a hint of flora underlying. Flavor is a bit thin with light grain and light flora as well as a touch of earthiness.
