Draught at the brewery; 10oz
Light amber color, clean, bright, beautiful, with small head. The aroma is mostly grassy, with a hint of wood sap, hay and manure. Lean body, but well structured, with very light residual sweetness; the malt flavor is nice, a bit bready, biscuity and with hay; correct bitterness, with a grassy side and some orangey resins. It would work very well with food.
Obviously different from a PNW beer, but clean, well brewed and with a bit of originality.

On tap at Doan's, pours a pretty clear golden with a small white head. Nose brings out tangy citrusy leafs, with a very leafy quality. Flavour is super tangy, like there's Nelson Sauvin in here (even though it's Hallertau), with lots of leafiness. So fresh and hoppy without any astringency. This is really great - one of the best local IPAs. Excellent.

Light amber, very bitter, lemony pine sol character. Some rye chewiness in the finish. Dry and hoppy. No head but the bitterness is nice. This is the most interesting of their first three beers. The hop is pretty austere, and there’s overall an interesting character. The rye is the dominant malt character, which means it’s kind of chewy but without anything else going on. But still, this is one I want to pint so I can really get a better feel for whether I like it, because it seems like the kind of beer that gets better if you drink a pint or two.

Golden/brown, toasty, hint of caramel, maybe toffee. Ok amber. It’s not got enough hop, which allows the caramel to show through a lot. That makes it more akin to one of the industrial alts, rather than one of the classic examples. And I have to admit, I am comparing it a little bit to the Steel & Oak Alt, which I had the night before and liked better.

Light gold. Grainy- fresh pale malt, light bitterness. The pale malt character is the best element, the bitterness subtle. It’s not the most kolschy kolsch, but it’s a pretty good golden ale.

Draft - Pedrumy citrus. Hops. Clear gold with a decent white head. Nice perfumy notes and bitterness, touch of rye spice. Nothing unique here, but very solid and drinkable.
