Hairbanger

16 oz can from Tavour. Medium amber with one finger foamy head. Light malty aroma, bananas, sweet. Taste is more of the malty notes, light sweetness. Very, very subdued.

Slightly over malted, not sure of this is what a belgo-style American pale ale is supposed taste like. Not as bad as normally over malted (or old) feeling beers. Maybe past date.

Pours an amber from a can, nice off-white head. Aroma is melon, musty cardboard, flavor is sweet with a light noble hop spiciness. Good beer.

750 ml crowler filled at Bauhaus Brew Labs in Minneapolis, Minnesota and poured to a glass 45 minutes later. The pour is a hazed orange golden with a well formed 1 inch light tan head. The aroma is super fresh citrus orange hops, bit of pine and defined Belgian yeast. The taste is the nose, with a great balance between the citrus pine hops and the herbal floral Belgian yeast. The palate is medium bodied with soft natural carbonation and a lingering floral finish. Belgian IPAs are pretty hit or miss for me, and this was a really well executed version of the style. Crazy fresh.

Pours a hazy, muddy yellow, with smallish head. Aroma has grass and tropical fruit, with some citrus. Flavor is grassy and citrusy, too. Good hop bite and bitter finish. Very good local IPA.

Can. Pours a near clear light orange with an amber hue and a white head that dissipates slowly to the edges. Aroma is very citrus forward that is quite bitter with a touch of sweetness and a sweet grain backbone. Flavor has more of an earthy citrus note with a growing bitterness backed by straw and grains.
