Nitro tap. Pours with a crystal clear yellow hued body with a white head. Aromas are grainy, clean and lightly estery, low toast. Pretty crisp and non offensive. Hard to smell with the nitro treatment on a pint in a busy bar. Flavors are grainy, salty, seltzery, light ester, sweet cornbread, medium hop, medium low bitterness. Clean and straight forward. Easy to drink. Creamy, nitro carbonation cannot hide a very thin body. Dry.

Bottle. Hazy light orange liquid with small to medium off-white head. Aroma of white wine, cereal, oak, sweet light fruit and some biscuit. Taste is dry, light bitter and light to medium sour with notes of wine and weird fruit. Medium bodied with low to medium carbonation. Just too weird, didn’t really enjoy it.
