On tap @ Rattle N Hum. This is a soft blurry bright golden one. A nice big hefty lacing white head in the top. Smells really good and citrussy. Herbal and tea-ish. Some sweet fruitiness also detected here. Like what I smell. It has a somewhat thin oily texture, near watery actually and it's average on the carbonation. Fresh citrussy in the taste. I get a nice lemon taste here. Hints of cardboard, herbal tea and greens. A wittish blend this? No idea, but it's quite tasty for a relatively low abv beer. 17.06.2015

Keg at the brewpub, Healdsburg, 04/02/16. Clear golden with a decent off white covering. Nose is simple, light grain, crackers, lemon drizzle, faint spice. Taste comprises light citric peel, straw, melon, faint yeast. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Bit of a nothing bier .... yawn.

Draft at the brewpub. Pours clear gold with a creamy white head. The nose has apple, bready malt, light honey. Light sweet flavor, with some damp grains, carpet, rotting citrus, earth. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Harsh finish, some further apple, esters, earth, carpet. Weird.

Draft at springers Santa Rosa. Clear golden orange coloured pour with a light haze and a sticky lasting white head. Aroma is pretty classic Belgian blonde, light honey, spicy hop. Bit of a lefe clone. Flavour is composed of semi sweet grains, heather, light hedgerow fruit, little dusty. Palate is semi sweet, highish carbonation, dusty. Slight tart. OK. Not bad.

On tap at Bear Republic, pours a hazy pale golden with a small white head. Nose is very floral and citrusy, with a dry crackery malt tinge to it - doesn't smell that Belgian-y. Flavour brings out light spices, floral notes, and some light Belgian yeast. Smooth, drinkable and refreshing, but nothing very exciting. Decent one.

Tap at GABF 2013. Poured a clear light amber with a frothy white head. The aroma is malt with some burnt toffee. The flavour is weak apple acid with a watery citrus palate. Served cool and very refreshing despite the lack of flavour.
