Brewery draught, 10/22/25.
As pictured.
Rich honey and bread with a hint of caramel. Low hop character. Clean.
Yes, there is bitterness, no it's not phenols from an immature brewer....it's...wait for it...hops. pretty tough when you can't distinguish phenolic flaw from hops. But I guess cheap is just trying to come up with sensational, clickbait reviews and find "reasons" to give really low scores. Thanks, man, for your service to this site....

Tap at source in Nashua. Hazy pale. Clean fresh fest nose. First taste is unexpectedly slightly bitter. Also, surprisingly tart in the background. Some phenol astringent bite in there to like an immature brewer. Not as civilized for a fest beir as I was expecting.

16 oz. can. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Starts with subtle malt sweetness. Transitions to subtle grain, fruity hop in the finish. Balance is quite good. Nice mouthfeel for the style. Another well made beer from this Brewer.
