Pours gold into a shaker. Bright white head with medium retention recedes to hug rim. Hay aromas. Crisp with sweet bread and hay front to back. Lasting bitter earth finish.

Draught at the brewery, 8/25/16.
Flaxen-blonde beer shows a light chill-haze, plentiful carbonation and a strong, white head atop.
Honey, light pepper and fresh herbs in the nose allow a good minerality and strong white grape character, as well. Malts are soft and rich with honey, showing little no sourdough/toasted grain. No alcohol or flaw.
Rich honey shows good attenuation and a strong, engaging carbonation that leads to moderately bitter hop notes and a light nectarine and fresh herb blend of flavors, through the middle. Peppery and growing more herbal, with light lemon, as well, it finishes fairly crisp, though with some of the honey obscuring the crispness, lightly. Quite nice, and clean, though maybe just a touch too much body here.

Bottle from Redstone Pretty clear for an unfiltered lager. Light golden color with a huge frothy white head. Spicy, earthy, floral hops on the nose with faint sulfur and even fainter malt character. The flavor is sharp spicy earthy hops with an almost metallic edge in there. The malt has no character, it needs something to stand up to the hop bitterness and it just isn’t there. I should have saved some of that Heide I just finished and mixed some in. Not horrible, but the recipe needs a little work imho.

Bottle at home in CT - picked up at the brewery. Pours unclear yellow-gold, highly effervescent, with a foamy white head. The aroma suggests a mild brett infection - subtle funk, grass, melon, farm. Light sweet flavor with further funky farmyard character, some citrus fruits, vague apples, leather. Light bodied with lively, massaging carbonation. Clean and refreshing on the finish with some further funk, slight lemon rind, zest, grapefruit pith. Quite tasty and drinkable, although I can only imagine this does not resemble the intended beer.
