Draught at Haymaker, 6/11/17
Quite hazy, bright blonde-golden with a medium-sized, white head showing moderate to moderately-low retention.
Papaya, light pine and strong pineapple in the nose with low yeast and light bread/biscuit through the middle. Not bubblegummy/heavily estery and with a good tropical character, but also some definite aggressive notes via Azacca and mosaic. Good aromatics, though and not too resinous on the finish (though there is some present). No alcohol noted, nor flaw.
Papaya, lemon, pineapple and a growing pine presence that is carried on by a fairly tight carbonation and soft, malty texture. Good attenuation and clean, with no yeast or alcohol. There is some definite resinous character building up and the Azacca and/or Mosaic contributes a bit too much sharpness and general dry grapefruit and bitter pine-like acidity. Still, it’s a great texture and nicely-carbonated with appropriate attenuation, so you can’t be too mad.
