0.375l bottle. Looks pretty good this. It has a cloudy strawish yellow golden color in the glass with a medium sized really side clinging and dotting on the glass side white head. Love the aroma. It's definitely hoppy fruity with that amazing Citra touch. Citrussy and sweet, I get peaches and lemon zest. A little bit of blood oranges also in this wonderful blend. Smells superb. And the taste definitely lives up to the aroma. Really refreshing and citrus infused this. Not directly sour but it has a lively acidity all the way. It has a good oily texture in the mouth and it's just about average on the carbonation. I also get a nice almost sweet white wine tone dancing in the back. A hint of grains and some soft earthy wet leafs is really the only thing dragging the whole experience a bit down, but it's undoubtedly a lovely one this. 01.04.2016

Bottle. Pours hazy yellow, with a creamy head. Aroma is tart citrusy hops, white berries, grapes and wooden brett, as well as some musty floral, tropical and farmyard notes. Medium to full body, with soft carbonation. Flavour is tart citrusy hops, with bretty wood, some musty fruits, berries and grapes. Nice and drinkable, and quite straight forward.

Bottle. light hazy hay yellow liquid with medium to big off-white head. Aroma of citrus, tangerine, lemon peel, fresh hops, mango, pineapple, apples, apple skin, mineral, grapefruit, light barnyard, hay, horse blanket and light grain. Extremely effervescent. The hoppy aroma just jumped at me upon opening the bottle. Taste is dry and medium sour with notes of tangerine, grapefruit pith, fresh hops, lemon, lemon peel, light grain and apple skin. Medium bodied with medium to high carbonation. This is spectacular. Aroma is insane. So well executed.

Almanac tap takeover at PreFunk Nampa hazy yellow light beige. Lots of fruity citrusy hop flavors blend well with the sour Blonde base. Works well and its very tart and refreshing.
