On tap at John Hewitt’s. Pours a clear gold with a slight yellow hue and a white head that dissipates to the edges and laces. Aroma has light pine, a bit of floral grass and some citrus rind with light grains underlying. Flavor has more of an earthy pine with citrus rind, wet grass and sweet grain backing.
