Draught at the brewery, 4/15/16.
Moderately hazy, deep straw blonde colored beer has a slight bronze tint and a foamy, medium sized white head showing average retention.
Light cereal grains, fresh yeast (minerals) and very woodsy and herbal hop notes are immediately endearing. There’s definite influence from the usual suspects (citrus, light pine) but it’s only part of the makeup. Leafy, dank and with tons of hay, straw, cracker and such. No alcohol or flaw.
A light shot of honey and bittersweet pine unfold on the palate before lightly catty citrus and spicey/dank notes takeover. Appropriately watery but with a very grainy texture as well. Very dry with moderate bitterness and very light juiciness. Awesomely drinkable and needs just a little more maltiness (not sweetness, just better extraction) to be truly great.

At the source: pours golden with a white head. Light tropical fruits and some citrus. Taste is pretty nice. Light hoppiness. Kind of like a really light IPA. Very mellow. Little aftertaste. Nice finish.
