Pours a hazy light golden-yellow colour with a frothy-foamy white cap, quickly going down, but some soapy lace and ring is left. Fresh herbal hop nose with hints of sweetness, like sugars. A bit of sourness in the taste with very light hops. Lots of tartiness, yeast lingering. Nicely blended, session dry-hopped sour brew.
So it's a session, so you expect a little thinness, but a lack of flavour would be a problem, but not with this. Bright lemony start with the citrus hops and mild sour tang beautifully married right up front. Then resin roughness with a little pine building as the beer linger. For a session very nice. Thanks!
