12 oz bottle to shaker pint glass at Huberts Sports Bar & Grill in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The pout is a hazed yellow golden with a well formed one inch white head. The aroma is softly tart lemon along with some grass and hay. The taste is soft hay, with mild citrus tartness. A bit of salt is evident towards the back. The palate is light bodied with active carbonation and the softly salty tart finish. Clean, toned down version of the style which made it easy drinking.
