Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: orange to copper color with a finger's worth of white foamy head which trailed off at a nice pace to leave some light lace
Aroma: mango to papaya and lemon sweet scents; light perfume to floral notes; light soap notes, bubblegum and sweet candied pomme-like fruits and some herbal quality down in there
Flavor: melds the prior noted aromas to a sweet to floral sweet to dry candy sweet quality: finishes fairly dry and somewhat like lemon candy with a new herbal tone to it
Texture: light to medium bodied, slightly sessionable; some smoothness but also noted dryness
Overall: I think I could have done without the soapy to bubblegum scent and the excessive sweet candy-like taste but other than those two things, this is a somewhat do-able beer.

Keg at Casc Aberdeen. It pours golden amber with a sturdy white head. The aroma is sweet, juicy, oily, perfumed, tropical fruit vibes, fruit salad sweets, bubblegum, mango and candy. The taste is crisp, dry, sour candy, loads of refreshers, slightly chalky, tropical vibes, candied citrus peel, tangerine, fruit salad sweets and a kick of booze with a drying and warming finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Really nice aroma to it, but it is a bit boosty. Fun anyhow.

Can. Wine Rack, Sharrow, Sheffield. Orange gold. Moderate haze. Foamy, white head stays the course. Nose has the cedar addition up front. Fruity hop. Notes of melon and pineapple. Big on the Belgian style yeast. Taste is fairly sweet and yeasty, with soft, piny bitterness. Medium body. Foamy carbonation. A tad flabby, maybe. More of the yeast on the finish, with soft, piny bitterness.

Draught at Hops N Barley, 6/24/18.
Clear, drab brass-to-copper. White head is small and sits at cover.
Earthy and musty in the nose with bubble gum?? and no hops that I can find. Pretty straightforward white bread and light honey-like maltiness with no real birch spice nor any sprucey balsam that I can find.
The not-very-interesting trend is continued in the flavor. Sweet bubble gum esters dominate. Lightly bitter and some astringency builds, from the adjuncts no doubt, but it's vague and just bitter without any resulting flavor. Fizzy carbonation is loose and unfocused. Typical macro-redolent 2 roads characteristics. Kind of just there. Grows bready and too sweet over time, as well. Was really hoping this would have some interesting yeast, hop or adjunct character and yet it has none. Inoffensive, at least, if too malty, bubble gummy and mundane.
