Draught at the...whatever this place is. I thought they were fermenting wort here, but after visiting on 9/9/18, I'm not convinced that is the case; they may just be receiving finished beer.
Clear, blonde-to-peach-golden. White head fades steadily to a ring.
Not much to speak of in the nose. Very light malts, clean ale yeast producing very minimal fruit ester and pretty low hopping rates showing light orange, light lemon and maybe an afterthought of peach and nectarine. No alcohol or flaw, though.
In the mouth it's similar. Texture is fairly substantial and attenuation is good, so that's a plus. There's just very little flavor here. Peach, orange, lemon, very light hint of mango...base malts give biscuit, dough and light honey. Clean, with somewhat high carbonation and no alcohol noted. Can definitely deal with low flavor as long as their beers are clean and on the dry side, so that was a pleasant surprise.
