Sampled from the tap at the Lexington location. Pours a clear straw yellow with a white head that dissipates to the edges slowly. Aroma has an earthy wheat with some straw and a bit of leaves coming through. Flavor has earthy wheat and straw with some wet leaves in the finish.

1 Pint at their brewpub in Nulu. Pale grainy aroma. Taste is pale grainy, crisp, little bit fruity. Mid carbonated. Honey sweetness wheat in the aftertaste. Nice and easy drinking stuff on a sunday morning at 11 am and 83 Fahrenheit.

Peach, orange, wheat malt, and straw aroma. Hazy pale yellow with moderate head. Lightly sweet orange, peach, wheat malt, and lightly bitter straw flavor. Okay body. Pleasant but light.
