Beer and coastlines. Condensation bleeding down the can, water washing over rocks. Our warm weather seasonal is pure Vallejo – west coast crisp, Carr’s® cracker clean, white grape jelly, under ripe peach, fastidious IPA that’s sure to unbutton every bit of tension you’ve been lugging around town. The warmth is close. Drag a four-pack out the water’s edge. Beer was invented for this.

16oz can from Shoreline Beverage pours a sunny gold with some ringing, white head. Old school nose, catty, piney, skunky dank, some lemon and floral notes too. Flavor has lemon, hand soap, herbs, but quite catty still. Finishes bitter and dry. Lacks some complexity but very drinkable.

Can thanks to Adam! Pours a clear light gold with a white head that dissipates to the edge and laces slightly. Aroma has a good amount of pine with a bit of grapefruit bitterness and a grain backbone. Flavor has a good amount of pine with a bitter grapefruit note and a bit of grains coming through.

On tap at Augur's Well, pours a clear copper golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out piney hops, sticky resins, and some residual sweetness. Flavour is very dry, with piney hops, some spiciness and bone dry biscuity malt. Dry, with low residual sweetness on the finish. Simple but really well-done.
