Keg at the brewery taproom. Pours hazy yellow-gold with a dense, frothy white head. Nice beer, has some rindy bitterness, pith, dry pale malts, piney accents. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Finishes with some assertive bitter pine needles, lemon rind, dry pale malts. Good balance and also some nice hop kick. Really solid.

Keg at the brewery taproom. Pours murky yellow-gold with a tight, creamy white head. The malt character is just a touch grainy. Lightly sweet overall, with a little chalky dryness, lemon rind bitterness, nips of pithy grapefruit. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Decent balance in the finish, some semi-ripe lemon, dried pale malts, rindy bitterness. Not bad.
