Fresh can drunk 6/16/16 at Bisq.
Big white head tops a lightly hazy, amber-copper body. Head retention is moderately strong.
Very fruity in the nose and unsurprisingly, a good deal like CBC’s The Cure. The hops are more straightforward with the juiciness here and there is a bit of grapefruit pith and sweat from the citra. Wheat in background and light biscuity malts add more than enough to balance the hops, though they do so very drily. No alcohol or flaw.
Very juicy in the mouth, but with a ton of dry wheat, grain and light breadiness. Fairly engaging carbonation and some grassiness and more cream-of-wheat like character linger amongst the mango, nectarine and peach. A bit of pithiness as well, with no alcohol or flaw.

Pours gold into a shaker. White head recedes to hug rim. Cracker and mild tropical fruit aromas. Soft with bread and hay upfront turning to mango in the medium length finish.

Can shared by Jeff, thanks. Gold color. Light bitterness and malt flavor Good malt but lacks a hop profile that a good pilsner needs. Soft, smooth palate.

12oz can pours a lightly hazy gold with some lacing, creamy, white head. Nose is grassy, lemon, pine, some feet/skunk, chive, heavy garlic scape. Flavor has just a little bread/honey sweetness, chives, grass, lemon, a little paper, some herbs. Dry finish. Very drinkable.

Draught and cans since debut, most recently at Middle East Upstairs on 5/11/16.
Deep copper-golden beer is clear with a big white head showing modest retention.
Light pine, caramel, sourdough and grapefruit show a pretty straightforward, west coast IPA but the aromatics are strong for its size. Clean, with some grassiness and pepperiness.
Moderately sweet, with caramel, pine and grapefruit all mirroring the aroma. Gets almost too bitter but then relents, leaving honey in its place to slowly return to balance. Brief interludes of juicy pineapple but mostly lots of grapefruit, grass and pepper. Strong carbonation with a malty texture and no alcohol or flaw. Quite intense for its size.

Draught at Deep Ellum, 3/5/16.
Light copper-amber colored with strong golden overtones. High clarity and a large, white head that steadily recedes to a ring.
Lots of cereals in the nose, with very light caramel and honey. Fresh hay and dusty, almost lemon-tinged hops add charm and uniqueness. No alcohol, no flaws. Love the graininess to it, but I can’t say I’d be offended at a little bit more hop character in the nose.
Light breadiness, with hay, light sourdough and tons of honey. Floral and spicy notes from the hops, with a medium carbonation and nice watery consistency lending a ton of drinkability. Could be a touch more crisply hopped on the finish, but the drinkable nature of the beer and absolute cleanliness of it is hard to argue with. Nice and dry, as well, though with strong malt suggestions, as it should be.
