Like the rustling of tall grass and worn book pages, with the soft haze and warm glow of that golden hour sunlight. This 7.3% delight portrays the picturesque and fantastical dry-hop blend of motueka, simcoe, mosaic & columbus, made smooth and fresh-churned creamy by a hint of lactose sugar. Crack one open and see where it leads.

Thanks willisread for the can! Poured into a snifter showing moderately filtered dark orange with sparse white foam. The nose is malty with subtle notes of sharp pine resin. The palate is light bodied and moderately carbonated. Light flavors of sharp pine with a minty mouthfeel and no bitterness.

Can. Pours quite hazy golden orange, medium off-white head, creamy and dissipates slowly, nice lacing. Aroma is melon, mango, stonefruit, a bit of buttery peach. Medium body, soft mouthfeel.

Tap at the source. Pours a hazy gold with a finger of foam that lingers. Sweet mango nose with faint syrupy pineapple. Medium to slightly heavy body. Clean, but maybe a bit heavy for Bearded Iris. Good body. Finish is lightly bitter. Still quite enjoyable.

Massive lemon-grapefruit nose, a little bread underneath. Pours an opaque gold, tons of particulate swirling underneath a fleeting white head with modest lace. Taste is a front-and-center hop assault, citric and herbal and pungent, grapefruit and pine mixed with a very mild bready malt base. Bitterness picks up on the finish, but an unexpected boozy note pops up on the fade. Gains a needed sweetness as it warms, but still feels a little too front-loaded.
