On tap at Bangers and Lace. Pours a clear gold with an orange hue and a clean white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a combination of earthy grassy and earthy pine hops that have a slight oak backing and a hint of grapefruit. Flavor has a good amount of grass with some resinous notes and backing sweet grain, oak and grapefruit. Really works.

tap at bishop’s arms cph, clear slightly dark yellow, small white head. Flowery hoppy and malty aroma. Appears quite fullbodied considering the low abv. Herbal bitter hoppy, flowery hoppy flavor, hop resembles an english bitter, but more agressive and with a little bit of us hops too. Some sweet malty balance, but still it is quite crisp.
