16oz can. A good APA. How about that. Sort or a rarity these days. Makes you want to go see a good band or 4 for 6 bucks and drink at a bar until 2am. Great balance, almost an IPL/Kolsch type feel. Great balance. Good stuff.

Pour is a orange-red with a large white head. Aroma is musty malt. Flavor is a slight toasted malt with a little smoke but not much beyond that. It's not sweet or bitter just kind of plain. My can said this is now 4.7%.

Tap at Beergeek Bar. Hazy orange-golden body, off-white head. Ginormous dank aroma, mild fruity touches... maaaan this was dank. Lean, resinous taste, bit citric, soft, sticky, not too bitter, anty, bit messy but chuggable.

Tap at Prague Beer Fest 2024. Thx... maybe Rafa? Golden body, white head. Salty-lactic aroma, light spicy notes. BIt dusty but clean lightly herbal-spicy and citric salty taste, quite well balanced in tartness. A well made gose all in all!

Tap at Prague Beer Fest 2024. Almost clear golden body, off-white head. Resin in the lean, clean, piney aroma. Resin and lemony notes in the lean, dry, clean taste. Well balanced, drinkable stuff, nice!

Tap at Prague Beer Fest 2024. Slightly golden body, white head. Floral and herbal aroma. Herbal, floral taste, lightly minerally-salty, bitterish. Nice overall! Hah, had it noted as Table Salt, but my notes said a very obviously different story... ah late festival moments.

Pour is a cloudy orange with a large white head. Aroma is orange marmalade with some white sugar. Flavor is a decent citrus and not as sweet as the aroma let on. Finish is dry with a good amount of bitterness. Nice fruity hops and this has a very light mouth feel.

Pour is a clear amber with a large white head. Aroma is baked bread and a decent hop profile. Flavor is more bread and hops with a little caramel malt sweetness. This was decent and not your typical pale lager.
