Shaker @ the brewpub (a few times). Color is clear reddish color. Aroma is very green, harvest vine, hops, sharp mineral aspect and a touch of diacetyl. Flavor has a stronger bitterness and a sharper mineral character, and some more of that caramerl and diacetyl mixed in, which really throws me off. Why have the hops and the diacetyl mixed together (I am assuming it was meant to be that way).

10 oz draft pour at the brewpub. Pour is red golden, clear body with a one inch off white head. Nice thick lacing is left behind on the glass. Pretty beer. Aroma of mild biscuit malt, some resin bitter hoppiness. Taste is big resin bitterness, peaty maltiness, some more maltiness. Palate is drying, long, bitter and resinous. Nice one.
