A re-imagining of two wonderful styles, only combined. Aromas of lemon, fresh cut grass, spruce, and mild stone fruit give way to a dry, sour finish.

On tap at Phillips, pours a clear pale blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of yogurty lacto, with subdued champagne yeast. Flavour is mostly yogurty lacto, with little of the yeasy showing up. Not very well-constructed. It's drinkable.

Grassy and passion fruit notes. Gear yellow gold with a decent white head. Soured lemon and grass. Solid.

The aroma is rotting cabbage it seems, must be that grass they're talking about but it seems doused in rotting garbage. Has a weak yellow body with just a hint of foam. Flavour is good sourness but it's overpowered by rotting armpit.... oops, I mean fresh grass. Outhouse even. Is that a hop? Skunk cabbage? Whatever it is, get rid of it. Mouthfeel is full enough with some crispness. For whatever positives this beer has it's fundamentally flawed.
