Brewery draught, 4/5/24. Moderately hazy, bronze-brass. Small ring of off-white bubbles. Juicy and with piquant acidity but also soft sugar to balance. Clean. Doesn't seem to punchy. Salinity noted on the finish helps soften, as well. Citrusy up front with dry, bitter acidity on top of somewhat sparse cracker-like malt. Doesn't thin out too much, though and maintains enough malt to stay balanced. Still, very, very dry. Salinity helps as does the heavy fruitiness. Low lactic character, not punchy.
