Taster pour on tap at NH Brewers Festival. Appearance is deeply hazy bright yellow, no discernible sparkle, thin ring of off-white head with light lacing. Aroma is a citrusy summery fruity aroma. Green grapes. Light pine. Taste is nice grape/fruit salad, light herbal/piney bitterness that serves as nice balance to the sweetness. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with frothy texture, average carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, not terribly strong flavors and more of a fruity beer than a total juice bomb. A little bit different and delivers. so 3.7-8

16 oz can from Bert's Deep golden orange color with a thin white head that persists. Earthy resinous pine aroma with bits of bready maltiness to counter. Bitter resinous asprin astringency. Chokeberries? I can't find any berry aroma or flavor in this beer. This one just doesn't work for me, all bitter and astringent with little else.

Poured from growler at FTB new location opening pinkish orange with a thin white head. Aroma is light berry floral hops grains. Taste is slightly bitter hops grains and berry. As it warms the bitter finish intensifies.

32 oz. growler shared by TJ. Aroma is fruit with a hint of rose pedals, light sour. The flavor is kind odd. Herbal, mild yeasty funk, kind of a bitter finish. Gets increasingly more bitter as it warms.
