On tap at brewpub
Appearance: Not much carbonation. Light amber with very little white head, no lacing
Aroma: Citrus and yeast
Taste: Thin mouthfeel. Citrus and pine
The first pint that was poured was almost totally flat. The guy next to me talked to the owner about how flat it was (owner said "that it was correct for the the style!"), but he did put on another keg. The second pint was a little better, but still was low carbonation. This may be a much better beer with the correct carbonation. I’ll try it another day and re-rate it if it’s better.
