Draft at zwanze day at fools gold. Dumped over by gent next to me but I drank enough to tick. Fine pour. Nose is soapy and grass. Tastes of lemon grass, soap, apricot and herbal. Bitter and pretty good.

Can poured into a snifter showing moderately filtered amber brown with sparse white foam. The nose shows a lot of guava, hints of pine resin, pineapple. The palate is light bodied and well carbonated. Pineapple forward with a malty mid-palate and a light bitterness on the end. The finish shows more pine resin and corn malts. Pretty good for a session.

Draught at Ginger Man Boston, 5/3/17.
Clear, bright, lighter golden with a small white head of low retention, as the Two Roads-brewed beers seem to all show.
Pine and lightly sweet nectarine in the nose show of doughy-sweet malt, filled with honey and even light caramel, mixing with the lightly resinous, piney edges of the mosaic but also light-to-moderate juicy, tropical notes. Clean, though and with no alcohol noted.
Light honey-like malt character and a touch of caramel create the same backbone as Super Session 2 and the same moderate bitterness and slightly abrupt finish is found here. Substitute pine and pineapple for the woody, overly dry amarillo of 2 and you basically have the same beer. More juice is found here, as it warms and the texture is supple and malty, to its credit. Still, these are incredibly underwhelming from a hop perspective finding only mild tropical/juicy character with too much pepper, bitterness and even resin.

On tap at Black Bear Saloon BDL. Clear medium amber under a small short lived white head. Nose is pine and citrus with some light bread. Flavour follows with light caramel sweetness and a medium- bitterness. Mouth is slightly thin with average carbonation and a light lingering bitter finish. 7/3+/6/3/14-

Hazy hold. 2 finger sticky head. Smells of a really juicy pine cone and lime aroma. Very light malt. Some cracker and oats. Grapefruit skin
