Draft: Poured a pale yellow color ale with a medium white foamy head. Aroma of citrusy hops notes with some cereal notes and light grassy notes is quiet nice. Taste is a nice mix of citrusy hops notes with some grassy notes and light cereal notes. Body is about average fir style with good carbonation. Nice enjoyable beer with great refreshing factor thought hops extraction level could be higher.

A lightly hazed golden ale with a thin white head. In aroma, light biscuit malt with grassy floral hops, light mineral notes, OK. In mouth, a crisp biscuit malt with German like grassy hops, light mineral notes, pleasant. On tap at brewery.

Can’t explain why I like this so much better than the first poster, but to each our own. Draft taster at Standard Market today. Clear golden yellow under a stiff head. Smell has basically piny hop, a bit of floral note as well. Taste builds on the pine hoppiness adding a note of grapefruit and some big bitterness that still works well with the lighter malt profile. Welcome as a sessionable hop bomb.
