Tap at Cap Tap. Pours darkish gold with a white head. Light fruity aroma - suggests pear. Near med body. Flavor is malty, puts a bit of honey on my lips, and has a floral/grass mild bitterness. More grass than anything. Fairly dry; lightly bitter; honey persists in a very mild way. Ok pool beer.

Tap. Pours clear pale golden, small off white head, a bit of lacing. Aroma is grainy, honey, grass. Flavor is light sweet, light bitter, grainy. Light plus body. Meh.

On tap at Altamont. It pours a golden yellow color with a thick white head. The aroma has some pale, grainy malts with light citrus and earthy hops. The flavor is pale malt forward with hints of soap and spicy noble-like hops. It has a full mouth feel for a pale, low gravity beer. I think they’re going for a light, crisp blonde ale here, but their low attenuating yeast strain doesn’t work in this kind of beer for me. They need a bigger, juicier hop profile. Overall, just ok.
