Taster at brewery. Cloudy golden pour with a foamy white head. Hoppy, piney aroma. Taste features soft bready malts with more of the earthy, woody piney hops. Nice prolonged bitter bite.

Draught at the brewery on 10/9/16 and a can, canned that day and drunk 10/10/16.
Very light, chill-haze-like clarity with a soft, peachy-gold body that shows a large, well-retained, white head.
The nose is incredibly soft and exhibits plentiful apricot, peach and finally lots of green, vegetal (good vegetal) hop character, with light woodiness and soft lemon and orange juice. Biscuity malts are "dry", it seems and there is only a touch of honey from the sugar. No alcohol or flaw.
Dry in the mouth, with low but engaging carbonation and tons of amarillo-like hop flavors. Woody, leafy, green, apricot-like notes and a gentle, but ample bitterness. Some strong cracker-like character from the malt, on the end gives a somewhat abrupt finish to the beer, but it’s clean and very, very drinkable.

Cloudy orange golden color with a fine white head. Good lacing. Ok intensity in the aroma. Decent medium body and an average to soft carbonation level. Moderate sweet and a nice bitterness. Semi dry ending. Citric, pine, herbal/grassy and fruity flavor.

12 ounce can. Pours hazy gold with a large frothy white head. Aroma is crisp and citrusy with obvious notes of Citra hops. Grapefruit and lemon peel. Crisp and dry with a hint of of light bready malt that balances the citrus hops nicely. Finish is dry and has a nice peppery touch. Very drinkable and a nice effort from Spellbound.

Draft - Earthy and light citrus hops. Cloudy gold with a rich white head. Citrus and bit or dry bitterness. Nothing exciting but decent.
