Pour is a clear gold with a large white head. Aroma is bready malt with some green hop. Flavor is the same, white bread malts with a green floral hop. Pretty standard pils but it is super drinkable on this hot day.

Pour is a bright gold with a large white head. Aroma is a nice biscuit malt. Flavor is super dry with more biscuity malt and a spice hop afterburn. Pretty good pils.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: dark orange cloudiness with a finger's worth of white foamy head which dissipated at a nice pace to leave some light lace
Aroma: sweet to tart blueberry notes up front with a slight lemony acidity underneath then a light grassy hop note and after that some funky sour character
Flavor: seems to roll into a tart to sour vibe through the blueberries while pushing out the lemon acidity, super light lemony tartness; finishes through tart blueberry features mostly
Texture: light to medium bodied; leaning towards being a sipper; light smoothness with some tart to sour stabs to the tongue but mostly non-offensive
Overall: not a bad blueberry sour/tart ale, maybe I could come back to.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: dark orange to almost brown cloudiness with a finger's worth of white foamy head which dissipated at a good pace to leave some light lace
Aroma: piney to earthy hops up front with a slight citrusy hop note in the middle then some malts that aren't exactly the cleanest of malts
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a bitter to bittersweet sort of blend; finishes off-dry with an earthy tone
Texture: light to medium bodied - perhaps closer to medium bodied; leaning towards being a sipper; light smoothness as some hops seem to act slightly assertive to the tongue with a little bit of bitterness
Overall: all of my friends gave this high praise like it was something Tree House or Hill Farmstead would brew but me, ehhh, I'm not sure what they were thinking as I don't see it that way.

Can to lager glass.
Appearance: clear golden color with a three finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: biscuity malts with some mixed citrusy fruity tones and hay/straw hoppy notes
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to bittersweet sort of quality; finishes slightly dry with a malty tone
Texture: light bodied; sessionable; some smoothness with a little bit of hoppy assertiveness but super light; good carb level
Overall: not a bad pilsener - I guess this is one of those "modernized" ones, right?

Can to becher glass.
Appearance: bright yellow cardboard color with a two finger white foamy head which slid off nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: floral, grapefruity and slight lemon rounding out the front, then light malts
Flavor: bright clean bittersweet with a little bit of that Peak Organic taste of pine; light aftertaste of lemon, floral hops and clean malts
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable, semi-smooth but a slight zesty brush of pine on the tongue; finishes crisp with grapefruity pop
Overall: nicely done session IPA I would come back to.

Pour is a peach color with a small white head. Aroma is a nice fresh blueberry. Flavor is pretty much the same, a nice fresh blueberry and the fruit does not taste artificial. It's a blueberry fruit ale. Not much to it but it does have a nice blueberry all around.
