Half pint draft at the brewery tasting room in Buckeye Lake, Ohio. The pour is a slight haze golden copper orange with more or less no head. The aroma is floral, fruit stripe gum, and a bit of toasted malt below. The taste is the bright (bubblegum) sweetness along with the floral, moving towards a light bitter finish. The palate is medium bodied, with a lower carbonation level, and a sweet finish. There was a strange soy flavor that jumped out as well.
