Sampled from the tap at the brewery. Pours a clear light earthy yellow with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has light pine but is mainly light grains and hay notes. Flavor has light pine and hay throughout with a bit of leaves supporting.

$2.79 single from Total Wine & More - West Richmond. Pours golden, pale, small white head. Citrusy aroma, mostly lemon, some floral hops as well. Flavor is absolutely lemon - almost lemon pledge (which actually isn’t a bad thing), some grass (little), and some toast (little). Not bad at all.
