Draft at the source. Cloudy pale yellow color. Herbal lemongrass aroma. Taste is bitter and earthy.

Pour is a hazy pale golden, almost like lemonade, with a huge white head. Aroma is some yeast notes with lemongrass and a herbal basil. Flavor is light and tangy with mostly basil coming after the swallow. This was a bit too light and watery with just enough herbal flavor to make this something a little different.

Keg at World of Beer Charlottesville, 6/5/16. Clear golden, large creamy white head, good retention. Aroma of pale bready malt, hay, dandelion, lime. The taste is dandelion, earth, lime,, pale malt and a papery note. Medium bodied, mild lingering bitterness. Odd beer, but quite nice.

Tallboy can from Beer Run, 6/4/16. Yeah, I was chugging coffee last time I closed at work. Dark brown, medium foamy brown head, average retention. Aroma of strong, intense coffee, roasted malts, mild tobacco. The taste is leather, coffee, roast, cherries, mild tobacco and vanilla. Medium bodied, chewy, low carbonation, mild lingering bitterness. Nice beer.

Pounder: Pecan, hay, and earth nose. Hazy copper, medium yellow head. Pecan, brief sweet malt at midpalate, Light body, easy carbonation. The sweet potato comes across more as a earthy nuttiness which is not unfamiliar for the style. Great job.

Pour is a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma is a kind of bready malt with a minimal spicy hop in the background. Flavor is a big dose of sweet caramel malt that I was not expecting. The hops are scarce which leaves this beer tasting more like British pale ale. If you are going to make an American IPA you better use more hops than they used in this.
