Keg at the brewery taproom. Pours totally clear yellow-gold with a creamy, white head. Lots of pale grains in the nose, some citrus, melon, hay, wheat. Light to medium sweet flavor with ample citrus fruit character, some tangerine, grapefruit, moderate phenolic notes, grassy bitterness. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Nice finish, with things really coming together, some Belgian yeast character, pale wheat bread, grain husk, lemon rind, more grapefruit, melon. Good beer.

Cask at the brewery taproom. Pours clear gold with a creamy, white head. Lightly doughy pale bread in the nose, some biscuits, hay. Light sweet flavor with slight flinty minerals, pale grains, hay, mellow citrusy hops. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Alright balance in the finish, some further pale grains, doughy biscuits, citrus peel, straw. An easygoing gold.

Keg at the brewery taproom. Pours black-brown with a dense, lasting beige froth head. The aroma holds burnt toast, moderate roasted malts, burnt pine, orange peel. Medium sweet flavor with a bit of harsh ash, bitter cocoa, scorched earth, charred herbs, dried citrus peel. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Lightly astringent on the finish, with more hearty ash, bittersweet baking cocoa, drying charred wood, earth, herbal hops. There are some interesting elements here, but in the end it’s not terribly drinkable.

Keg at the brewery taproom. Pours perfectly clear yellow with a creamy, white head. The nose has biscuits, faint butter, straw, mellow lemon. Light sweet flavor with simple pale, bready malts, light bitter hay, impressions of citrus, dough. Light in body with average carbonation. OK balance on the finish, with more simple pale malts, faint butter, a little minerality and faint smokiness, more straw, biscuits. So so overall.

Keg at the brewery taproom. Pours slightly hazy yellow-gold with a thick, creamy white head. Crispy pale grains in the nose, some grass, straw. Light sweet flavor with more grassy hops, biscuity malts, grain husk. Light bodied with average carbonation. Clean and dry on the finish, with more bitter grass, husky grains, lemon rind, biscuits. Crisp and refreshing.
