Draught at the brewery, 3/24/18.
Clear, straw-golden. White head fizzles away to nothing rather quickly.
Smells floral with light grain and oatmeal. Some herbal notes, I guess? For having seven hops in it, this is decidedly very thin on hop character. Not even the typical grapefruit-orange marmalade character you'd expect. Kind of just dull grain, light cereal and soft floral notes.
Grain and oats in the mouth fight each other for the texture and it comes out with a touch of softness at points, but mostly grainy and overly thin. Soft, light flavors showing vanilla, honey and herbs. Lots of fruity ester and light hop on the finish. Very, very marginal.

4 oz. draft at the source. Color is a totally clear yellow with fast dying head. Aroma is fruit hints of pear, and maybe water. Flavor is mostly mineral water. The brewer used 8 varieties of hops?? I can’t find them any place. The body is light with a watery. It is kind of like carbonated pear water. Whoa.
