Hazy golden coloured body with a honey glow and a rich, three centimetre tall pure white head. Aroma of grass, very light earthy and floral hops and a touch of a piney bite near the end. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong grassy and floral notes with some dry wheatie and ligthtly yeast characterstics coupled with some light pine and resin and a very dry, almost peppery finish with hay and more flowers. Aftertaste shows some grain along with the flowers and dry malt along with the super grassy notes and a faint bit of hops and the bitterness associated with them. Overall, a dry and wheatie flavour with some very herbal flavours and a touch of the grainy and mellow flavours associated with it. Nice to sample and very dry and grassy, but also good to sample in the summertime, even if its a year later and a few states removed! I sampled this twelve ounce stubby bottle purchased from Hannaford in Portland, Maine on 30-July-2016 for US$9,99 for the six pack sampled on 28-May-2017 at home in Pungoteague/Onancock, Virginia (Eastern Shore).

At the source: pours golden with a white head. Aroma is lemon and rye. Taste is lemony with a nice rye finish that does not overpower the pale ale character. Pretty good. Refreshing.

Bottle from The Drinkery, Londonderry NH. Aroma is light malt with strong floral/citrusy smell. Appearance is hazy yellow with massive foamy white head with decent retention and foamy lacing. Taste is mildly sweet taste of melon/rind in the first half and then more strongly sweet and fruity second half. Palate is medium bodied with creamy texture with soft carbonation and long finish with mild bitter at the very end. Overall, intriguing aroma and taste, nice appearance, and pleasing palate. High marks all around.

Draught and bottles since debut, most recently Spring 2015.
Hazy golden body has a small but fairly well-retained head.
Fresh, aromatic, floral hops in the nose are fragrant but boast no heavy acidity or pine, which seems like a big accomplishment these days, when using colombus and centennial. Orange rind, wheat-like nuttiness and biscuit-like malt with a bit more honey as it warms.
Not quite sure exactly why I love this beer so much. The drinkability is certainly at the forefront and the lack of punchy or heavily acidic hop notes dosent hurt either. Medium-light bodied, well-attenuated, with fruity and nutty notes from the rye and yeast. Of the hazy IPAs/Pale ales, this one seems on a whole nother level for me and almost strikes me as an unfiltered hoppy wheat ale (which I thought was what it was for a long while). Replace the wheat with rye and youre not far off. Somehow still delicate, with touches of honey for balance and no astringency or huskiness. Just a great beer and enough reason for me to almost always try these guys’ other offerings.
