Draft at the Hotel Oregon. Golden pour, small foamy head. Light malty notes, subdued hops as well. Balanced for an easy drinking experience.

On tap at Market Street. Cloudy deep blonde to amber with thick lace. Light caramel crystal malt nose with citrus cascade and a bit of pepper. Smooth and creamy, more crystal flavor than I need, with a pepper hop character. Too full bodied really. Some diacetyl too. Very astringent, dirty finish. Rather sloppy.

Bottle thanks to Lizzie! Poured a hazy orange amber with an off-white head that dissipated to the edges. Aroma had a strong light fruit note with some citrus and a bit of backing grain. Flavor was full of citrus with some light fruit and a grain backing.

Aroma of citrus backed by a bit by malt. Hazy amber color with a white head that filmed out. Medium bodied. Citrus, including grapefruit, backed by a little maltiness. The finish is decidedly bitter. Really good stuff. "Mellows" after awhile, and that seems to improve it a little.
