Growler from the brewery
Hazy dark blond colour, compact head. Mild resinous aroma. Lean body, it's off dry; the malt and bitterness seem off, even slightly sour, with vegetable accents.
Not impressed by this one.

Growler, pours a hazy copper golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of resinous hops, orange rinds, citrus notes, and chewy caramel malt. Flavour is sweet and chewy, with lots of caramel malt, resinous hops, bitter orange rinds, and citrus. Nearly syrupy sweet but also quite bitter on the finish. Rather harsh, quite jagged and lacking balance. I like some of the individual characteristics, but it's just not integrated well.

Soft cloudy light gold body and modest foam. Okay sweet hop aroma, a little candied, mostly indistinctive. Taste is chewy malt, mellow hops, ending chunky and dry. No sign of the alcohol anyway, not bad, rather straightforward.
