Crisp, ever so slightly hazy golden and honey coloured body with a two to three centimetre tall off-white head that fades fairly quickly and just leaves a touch on top. Aroma of grass, alcohol, grapes, earth, funk, cardboard and yeast at first. Light-bodied; Strong biscuity and grassy flavours at first with a little bit of a sour flavour, but the grape and citrus notes hit right afterwards along with a very dry bite and hit from grasses, coriander seed, hay and citrus zest. Aftertaste shows nice mellow sweetness, some grassy and hay flavours and a touch of citrus essence, white grapes and apricots. Overall, a nice and refreshing beer with good citrus and sour flavour with grape flavours, but moderate complexity and good dry finish. I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased from Whole Foods in Fair Lakes (Fairfax), Virginia on 19-November-2016 for US$9,99 sampled at home on the Eastern Shore in Pungoteague, Virginia on 01-July-2017.

22oz bottle at home, from Old Ox Tasting Room. Poured a very slightly hazy yellow color with a small off-white head. Aroma was light white grape, mild citrus notes. Mild, but tart acidic character, touch of salt notes. Very drinkable.
