Tap at Molto. Wheat, pilsner-like malt, noble hop, grass, lemon, orange, some yeast. Very cloudy, pale gold with a fine, airy head. Crisp malt flavor, crackers, bread, very European. Clean and enjoyable and nicely hopped. Like it.

On tap at Watering Hole for the 3rd Anniversary. Pours a slightly hazy pale straw color with little to no head. Nice hop foward session with both citrus and pine aromas standing out big. Light body with a watery mouthfeel. The body has only a little more consistency than water, but there is a hint of malt in there somewhere. The hops really shine though and it’s not overly bitter. A pretty good 3.0% ABV easy drinking and refreshing session ipa. --- Beer merged from original tick of #031 / Y Market Niagara Session IPA on 26 Jun 2015 at 00:12 - Score: 7

On tap at Bungalow. 36 IBU, 5.4% A bright amber pour, with a thick beige head. A hoppy pine and fruits nose with an earthy hoppy flavor that has possible rye malt notes? Medium bodied. Very well balanced flavor of fruits and bitterness. A tasty APA.
