A4 draught, 9/6/25.
Heavily hazy, bronze-honey-golden. Small, off-white head.
Delicate wood balanced by bread-accented honey and mild citrus. Not intensely aromatic, but very clean and polished with a fair bit of fruity ester lingering.
Soft with again, a delicate woody Amarillo character. No big bitterness or heavy dryness, with lemon and peach joining and a chewy, soft, malty finish with excellent texture and attenuation. Not flashy but exceptionally balanced and polished. Lingering bread, wood, lemon.

Can at home, thanks 🙏 Maakun. Hazy pale golden with white ring head. Sweet pineapple, soft oatiness, with some mild garliccy dank weedy funky grassy hops. Sweet and moderate bitter. Medium body and soft carbonation. Very fresh and nice mineral feel with oily edges.

Pours hazy pear into a shaker. Bright white micro head with excellent retention recedes leaving sheet lacing. Dusty melon and tropical fruit skin aromas. Soft with melon and citrus upfront turning to mild pith in the medium length finish.

Tap. Reservoir, Waterbury VT. It’s ace to be back here after 3 years. Hazed pale gold. Super sticky, lasting, fine white head. Nose has lots of lemon and lime. Cut grass. Hint of weed. Fairly pronounced sweet, bready grain. Taste is crisp, fairly sharp bitterness. Decent malt sweetness. Light and clean mouthfeel. Fine, bright carbonation. Light lemon citrus bitterness to finish. Nice.

Growler shared thanks to kermis. Slight hazy pale golden with white head. Massive fruity hops on the nose! There’s a lot of orange juice, lime peel, marijuana, loads and loads of tropical fruit cocktail, light grassy and mineral towards the finish. Light sweet and medium bitter. Under medium bodied with a bit dry feel. Lovely!
From can: nicer body. Really good.

Tap at Reservoir, Waterbury. Colour is cloudy orange with small white head. Aromas and flavours: Fruits, grain, tropical fruits, hops and malts. Juicy but needs hops. Some strange dry grainess.
