Draught at Bar 421, 7/6/24. Lightly cloudy, lavender-violet. Nose is very faint blueberry, with moderate lactic character and some sweet base malt. In the mouth it's quite sweet, lots of texture with a basic lactic element. Really hoped there'd be more barrel character or barrel-agikg apparent, but alas it's grasping at straws. That said, it's clean and drinkable.

Canned 10/10/2023, drunk 1/23/2024. Moderately-to-heavily hazy, rust-bronze. Large, yellow-tinged head shows moderately-strong retention. Juicy nose with a bit of maple, fruity yeast and not too heavy on the specialty malts. Mellow and clean without any resin. Just orange juice and light tropical fruits with a hint of pine and base malt to balance. Touch of biscuit/cracker. No booze. Good, approachable bitterness with light spice, light pine and almost a touch of smoke in the very background. Soft, juicy hops balance assertive bitterness and specialty malt (and white ash, i guess). Ample, well-attenuated base malts tie everything together and it's clean and flavorful. Wow, great intro to this brewery. Will now check them out at some point.

16 ounce can from Craft Beer Cellar in Waterbury, VT. Number one with a bullet. Honey gold pour. Large, rocky beige head. Earthy, grainy malt aroma. Zesty, grainy flavor leans toward earthy rye malt. Some yeasty character, though it is subtle. Spicy and dry. A clean, crisp palate. Perhaps a bit of nuttiness, as well. Not getting much citrus, but still an enjoyable beer.

Can from Paul, thanks for hooking me up. Pours a hazy orange gold color with a huge frothy bone white head that persists. Earthy citrus and bits of tropical with a hint of sweet bread on the nose. Flavor follows but adds a hint of grass. Pretty nice.
