Draught at the brewery
Light amber color, cloudy, with medium sized head. The aroma is lightly bready and lemony. The mouthfeel is smooth, highly carbonated; the lemon peel dominates the flavor, some cedar peel too, and traces of bread; moderate acidity; the final is a bit more vinous, and woody.
Very nice.

Draft - Light tartness and grains. Cloudy gold with a decent white head. Tart malts and some apple and plum notes. There is a dullness and the dry hopping just doesn’t come through.

On tap at Powell Street, pours a clear bright orange with a medium white head. Nose is a bit odd, with vegetal notes, light citrus hops, and dry biscuity malt - not getting any sourness on the nose. Flavour however is certainly puckering, with medium acidity, tart peach-like fruitiness and bone dry light hoppiness. Not the most cohesive beer - don't think they got the dry-hopping right, though I don't know what the base beer is like on its own. Needs some work.
