Draught at the brewpub. Cloudy yellow with minimal head. Evident lemon aroma from the lemon sliced it was served with. Sweet with some light banana esters. A bit fruity with some yeast, dough and vanilla, rounded mouthfeel. Thirst quenching.

Draft at the brewpub. Citrus (grapefruit) aroma. Light amber color with a white head that departed rapidly. Near medium body with mild "English" carbonation. A very floral flavor. Almost medicinal (herbs and flowers?). Malt arrives at the end. The finish is puckerish and floral, though the bitter seems quite mild. Very good. Very underrated?

Draft at the brewpub. Very nice floral hop aroma. Beautiful amber color with a nice white head that laced a little. Thinnish body with moderate carbonation. Flavor of citrus hop lightly backed by caramel malt. It’s a hoppy little thing. That’s the finish too. Dry and hoppy. Really good ale.
