Gold in color, very slight haze with a three-finger head. Aroma is citrus fruit, tropical fruit and slight floral. Taste is also citrus fruit, tropical fruit and spruce.

Draft at Highland, downtown, 6/10/23. Clear gold, white head, light lace. Citrusy, fairly dry. Tasty.

Beautiful pour, golden and sightly hazed with a gorgeous white cap. Taste offers up grapefruit, peach, passion fruit, and pine, with a lingering woody bitterness on the back end and a hint of cracker from the malt. Not a bad pint.

On tap @Highland after selling my blood to the highest(only) bidder. Frothy, tall, 12oz Weiss glass. Hazy, lacy, 14k gold. Menthol, woody bitter nose, kinda sharp. Surface cleaner. Not a whole lot going on. Mix of Aspirin & lemon pith bitterness. Dusty dry bread crumbs. Sharp. Ever slight touch of sweetness that invalidates the whole thing. More body than expected. Strong for it's size. Over it.
