Sample at GABF 10/05/2019, thanks to kathryneels for assistance with note-taking. Hazy yellow-gold color with a thin white head that dissipates quickly to an outer ring. Short strings of lace. Grassy hops, fruit and malt in the nose. Light-bodied with flavors of floral hops, citrus and bready malt. The finish is mildly bitter with a grassy hop aftertaste. Above average overall.

Cans bought in Austin, Texas. Pours a very slight hazy golden colour with a frothy, somewhat creamy warm cap, with good stay and foamy lacing all-over. And this stays the whole time. Light hoppy nose, well-balanced, not showing too much grassiness, but more floral. The flavours have the big hoppiness with some bitterness and a dry finish. Feels like an APA with Mosaic hops - which is fine. Goes down easily. Kind of crisp as well.

At the source: pours a clear deep gold with a white head. Aroma is some papaya, other aorta of fruitiness, a bit dirty aroma in a good way. Somewhat bitter. Not much pine but a bit. Mostly pretty smooth. Hops add some bite to the aftertaste.

On tap at Hops & Grain, pours a hazy golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out dank, weedy hops and dry toasted biscuity malt. Flavour is similar, with lots of fresh, dank, weedy hops upfront, with a soft biscuity malt backbone. Fresh and perfect use of the mosaic. Excellent.
