On tap at White Sails, pours a hazy blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out champagne yeast, very dry floral hops, biscuity malt, and a touch of diacetyl. Flavour is along the same lines, with toasted biscuity malt, bone dry hops, and a trace of diacetyl that seems intermingled with the champagne yeast. Not feeling this.
