Draft 8 oz pour at Matchless. First visit! Finally made it. A shiny light golden yellow pour. A massive pineapple impression all around on this. Made me think this was a pineapple added deal. Low bitter hop and fruit linger. Easy drinker. Flavorful. Not the biggest pineapple fan, but overall, good beer here.

Light hazy orange with a white head. Bold danky inspired hops, bright fruit salad, tropical notes throughout. More intense bitterness than expected, which is nice.

Draft pour pint at The Bine. Matchless still killing it with the IPAs. A bright, hazy golden orange pour. This really has a sweet side, but it's not much of a bother. Ripe fruit. Juicy orange and tropical aroma. Thick body. Some banana and pineapple notes. Refreshing double. Enjoyed this.

Draft pour at the Redhook BrewLab, Seattle. A peach golden orange color pour, quick fading head. 0 IBU. Interesting, and for some reason, caught my eye on the menu right away. Tart, ripe fruit aroma. Flavor is a candy sweet fruit. Kiwi? strawberry and watermelon too? Kool Aid like flavors going on. Hmm. Mellow as expected from a berliner. Flavorful for a light beer. Good, but for some reason, different than what I expected.

@ Beer Junction. Opaque, medium head.  Very papaya, bitter, grapefruit, a touch doughy but pretty tasty with big bright.

Had this at Three Magnets. Hazy and quite pale. Kettle, kinda funky- pedio. One note sour that’s thin and has pedio. A miss.

Tap Station Seattle: pours hazy orange with white head. Aroma is light tropical fruit, plenty of citrus. Taste is fruity and lightly bitter. Very light and very smooth to drink. Some planty and bitter finish. Good overall.

Draft 20 oz mug, poured at The Bine, Bothell. First visit! A shiny caramel copper pour with a thin fizz head. A nice warm caramel malt aroma. Very grainy nose, but in all the right ways. Flavor is a ton of bold malt, slightly sweet, but just barely enough to notice. A smooth balance of flavors, that I’d love to find on cask. Fun to discuss this absolute agreement on the subject with luttonm. This is what an ESB should be like, and it’s awesome to see that Matchless is killing it in multiple styles, even the ones that are difficult to do so. Very impressed with this one.
