Draft at Armsby Abby. Flat gold with minor topping. Nose is herbal and flora and odd elixir. Tastes of peppery notes, herbs, florals, white wine, litter box. Didn’t know cat nip in mid no wonder I was going crazy swatting at bartender.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear bright gold with a creamy white head. Aroma is tart/funk/sour. Med body. Flavor is tart/funk/sour. Herbal/floral flavor mix. A sort of non-peppery non-spice prickle. Not passion fruit or pineapple. Rather unusual but pleasing flavor.

Single can via Appalachian; $4. Hazy, gunky, pale honey, thick film of a head. Funky punch, sweaty flora, dank, skunk, odd grape juice, extremely veggy, still curious. Taste is semi-sweet, twangy bitter-sharp apple juice, heavy acorn, apricot, socks, veg & twangy yogurt. Yeasty, sharp, pretty damn acidic, decent carb,, green. Pump the CO2 & I'd love this. Too rough as is.
