Good stuff overall. Fairly clean. Eatery snout. Moderate sweetness, nips of citrus, flaked wheat, lemon peel, banana chips. Nice depth. Could be creamier but overall it’s well enjoyable.

Draught at the brewery, 8/11/16.
Moderately hazy, light, flaxen-blonde body is well-carbonated and topped by a good-sized white head showing strong retention.
Spicy phenols in the nose promise white pepper and very light clove, as the dry, rustic, grainy wheat/cereal character alongside a strong minerality provides incredible clarity and brightness. Not heavy on the banana or bubble gum, though the esters are certainly present to some degree. They further add softness to the beer and no alcohol or flaw is present.
Wasn’t expecting much out of this light rendition, but wow is this stuff flavorful...moderate acidity balances light malt sweetness and soft, lightly juicy esters as a crisp, snappy grain and phenol combination clears the palate on the finish, leaving a trail of minerality. A very gentle bitterness helps accomplish this as well, from the grassy, herbal hops, while white bread and light honey linger on. Awesome stuff and I love the assertiveness of flavor and yet crisp, drinkability.
