Poured up on tap at the brewpub where it exhibits a hazy opaque deep gold body that supports a thin near white head of foam. The aroma offers up soured citrus, a bit of moldy citrus and then lime flowing into a lime nuanced Brett note. The taste delivers a pleasing soured funky almost molded citrus followed by a mild Brett character, apricot and peach. Really nice. It ends with a faint cracker like oat sensation. Yeah. Nice. I can drink this all day every day. Wow!

Poured up on tap at the brewpub where it exhibits a clear pure gold body that supports a white head of foam. The modest aroma offers up green shrubs, lime, floral hops and the lemon lime toward the end of the draw. The taste delivers nice full and moderately bitter noble hoppiness with notes of lime, floral hops and earthy shrubby almost woody bush. Thanks to the yeast it ends nicely dry with a mild sense of oat bubbling to the surface. Really digging this.

Poured up on tap at the brewpub where it exhibits a murky near opaque deep gold body that supports an off white head of foam. The aroma offers up pineapple pith, banana and a bit of honeydew and guava. The taste delivers bitter floral hops and pink grapefruit flowing into under ripe pineapple, banana and guava. Weird and it really doesn't come together. Tastes like a Desert Eagle offering. sad.

Poured up on tap at the brewpub where it exhibits a clear deep gold body that supports a thin off white head of foam. The aroma offers up sweet malts a bit of creamed corn and then some thin citrus hops. The taste delivers a moderately thick palate and sweet malts, a dash of corn and grapefruit and then some clementine hop flavor. It attains a pleasing level of citrus hop bitterness to midway. Solid hoppy cream ale.

Poured up on tap at the brewpub where it exhibits a clear pale gold body that supports a thin white head of foam. The modest aroma offers up basically citrus and a bit of dank. The taste delivers juicy citrus hop flavor and bitterness leading to spicy dank hop bitterness. Nice. There is a mild sweet lagery ester essence going on in there just under the hops. Clean and nice.

Pint can pours with a hazy deep gold to copper body that supports a thin off white head of foam. The aroma offers up clementine, pineapple and tangelo. Nice. The taste delivers a modest level of juiciness with tangelo, pineapple and a dash of bitter grapefruit. It maintains a pleasing citrus juiciness right into the finish. Solid brew that stays far far away from being too sweet like most in this 'style'

Dark brown. Thin head. Nice cassia/chocolate aroma. That’s a combo that really works. Really nice, good balance in terms of character, lots of nice chocolate, rich malts, touch of alcohol, and a balanced, smooth cassia.

Medium brown, Touch of mint, but it doesn’t go well much with the fudgey chocolate character. Not working for me, in a real way. I mean the base is solid, but after that, whatever

Medium brown, with a thin head. On the nose, lots of chocolate and a little bit of cherry. Already the cherry has changed how I perceive the malts. Very soft, chocolately, milk chocolate, nice and rich. The cherry is actually quite subtle, like you have to look for it subtle.

Dark brown. Medium head. The aroma has a fudgey note, light chocolate. Palate is light, fudgey, moderate bitterness. Decent, but I don’t get enough oatmeal and all told it’s mostly ok. I wish it was richer.
