On tap @ Station 26. Pours a bit hazy yellow appearance with a white head. Bright fruit in the nose - apple, pear, banana. Bubblegum and candy as well. Smells quite nice. The flavor isn’t overly sweet. Lots of smarties and bubblegum. Seriously, not that overly sweet despite all those descriptors. Great.

Tap at the brewery - light gold with a slight haze - nose starts out somewhat.promising, with some grassy, herbal euro hop character, light spiciness, some apple esters - there is some slight banana, but this does a fair job in the nose of minimizing the sweetness, booziness, and heavy banana that plagues so many american examples of the style - has a nice full.frothiness in the mouth - the flavor is fairly sweet, though, with some vanilla and honey - however, it is at least a clean sweetness that is not too heavy or sticky - notes of apples are complimented by a light acidity through the middle - a mixture of some spiciness and moderately herbal hops - some spicy tettnag punchiness in the finish, some white pepper - the tail end has some lingering white frosting kind of sweetness to it - overall, a decent american effort that avoids being a banana bomb, but it’s still a bit too sweet.
