Keg at the brewery taproom. Pours lightly hazy gold with a small, creamy white head. The aroma has pale bread, mild lemon zest, nips of wheat flakes. Light-medium sweet flavour with moderate rindy bitterness, clean pale bread, lemon rind, melon. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Finishes with fairly assertive rindy bitterness, crisp pale bread, mellow minerality. Good.

On tap @ brewery. Hazy golden appearance with a white head. Potpourri, lemon, fresh cut flowers aroma. Moderately to highly bitter. Very very floral flavor. Light lemon / citrus. A little too strong for my taste but not bad.

Tap at the brewery - lighlty hazy gold - not your standard white ipa in that it is not a hoppy wit, but just a simple, light-textured ipa - creamy body and texture makes it seem like they added flaked oats - it’s a nice touch - flavor is a bit sweet for me, but it is clean, at least - bitterness is high but not astringent - hop flavors are peppery, citric, finishing with a bit of grass and pine - it’s a solid ipa, just wish it were slightly less sweet.
