On tap at Cold Spring Tavern - an old stagecoach stop from 1868 in the middle of no where. The venue certainly added some points to this, and it was nice and refreshing in the heat.

Draft. A yellow beer with a white head. The aroma has notes of malt and straw. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and straw, leading to bitter finish

Bottle purchased at the source. Pours with a mostly clear golden body with a somewhat longer (than per IBC’s usual) lasting white head. Aroma of candy corn, caramel, honey, bread and spicy hops. Taste is a bit bitter, tannic grain extraction, honey, and hops. Really dry, but not horribly flawed. Some metal notes. Lively bubbles, dry, bitter finish.

Bomber. Nose of light flowery hops, caramel, and yeasty mustiness. Hazy urine yellow with a big pale yellow head. Flavor is a slight tartness, yeast, and a hint of caramel.
