On tap at Breakwater, pours a hazy copper golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out herbal and dank hops upfront, backed with dry biscuity malt. Flavour brings out oodles of piney dry hopping, with a touch of hop resins and just enough biscuity malt to back. Dry and potent on the finish, with a pleasant astringent. Very nice.

On tap at Breakwater, pours a clear yellowish blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings subdued honey sweetness, cereal malt and light hop resins. Flavour brings out the honey upfront, with cereal malt and subdued hoppy bitterness. Doesn't work too well. The honey is cheap and the hops are subdued, leaving this feeling very confused and lacking depth.

On tap at Breakwater, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out a strange mix of subdued honey, beer and white wine. Flavour is expressive mostly on the wine yeast upfront, with subdued honey and light wild yeast. A bit confused - I don't get the mead or beet. All in all, very pleasant.
