Can at home in Canaan, NH. Picked up in VT. pours murky orange with a foamy, white head. Pale bread in the snout, meaty citrus fruits, tangerine, melon. Light sweet flavour with pleasant tangerine character, a bit of dry pithy citrus, more pale malts, mild bitter lemon rind and straw. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Tidy finish, more pale bread, light minerality, more citrus fruits. Solid sessioner.

16 oz. can purchased at Craft Beer Cellar, Waterbury. 8/30/2017 stamped on bottom of can. Bright hazy yellow within lasting head. Aroma citrus, wheat, mild floral hops. Mild juice hints. Mouthfeel is dry wheat, hay stacks. Bitterness fades fast. Overall, flavor kind of ends flat.

On tap at the source with Craig. Lighter shade of murky than the other beers I tried here. Light bready malt some fruity hops and just a hint too much astringency for my tastes. The low light of my visit here.

On tap at the brewery.
This was poured into a becher pint glass, nice to see the glassware is starting to catch on.
The appearance was a murky yellow color with a thin white foamy head that dissipates at a nice pace. Some ringed foamy lace runs around the glass.
The aroma has fresh citrus/lemon rind to juice sweet to bitter, sticky pulp. And then as it warms, sly sweet wheat underneath.
The flavor takes all of those previously mentioned aromas to blend nice and even across my tastebuds. Crisp balanced citrus to wheat aftertaste to quick semi-dry finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fair sessionability about it. Low carbonation. Acceptable semi-sticky notes toying with my tongue.
Overall, blonde ale or pale ale? Perhaps a cross between both and damn nice.
