Draught at the brewery
Blond to golden color, small head, clear and bright. Nice biscuity malts, play well with the dry body, and the hop adds a nice resiny character, lightly fruity in the nose.
Clean, pleasant.

On tap at Bomber, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out piney hops, sharp biscuity malt and straw. Flavour is quite sharp, with very bitter hops that overtake the flavour, transitioning to floral, soapy hops and a biscuity malt base. Never been a fan of Cascade hops on their own, so this isn't terribly desirable, but it's okay.

Draft - Sweet leafy hops. Pale gold with a rich white head. Intense leafy and floral citrus notes. Lupus in bomb and nicely so. Well done.
