Quite pale, slight haze. Lean malt, medium bitterness. Solid stuff, as usual.

Tart, vinous, dark malts, light cherry. Decent but typical dark sour. Even Russian River won't get me to like dark sours.

Dull hazy pale brown, thin head. Sticky, phenolic. Not out of line for a quad but these qualities are emphasized over malt character or balance.

Draft at ØL Beercafe & Bottle Shop in Walnut Creek, California. The pour is a slightly hazed yellow golden with a white foam head that leaves behind thick lace. The aroma is bread, cracker malt, mineral, and a soft herbal spice. The taste is crisp and fresh cracker bread malt, mineral and the herbal spice. The palate is medium to light bodied, unfiltered mouth feel and the crisp clean mineral finish. Delicious and crazy drinkable.

Pale, some haze. There's a nice fruitiness, good malt base, light bitterness. I don't know how much Brewer's Gold I'm getting, but it's nice balanced hop.

16 oz. bottle, pours a hazy yellowish blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of pithy stone fruits, some dankness, and gentle citrus. Flavour is clean, with plenty of citrusy hops, gentle pithy stone fruits, and a touch of dankness. Nice hop expression, no chalkiness, just juicy enough. Finishes juicy and nicely bitter. Excellent.

500mL bottle. Pours murky dull yellow with a small white head. Lots of orange juice, tropical fruits, and some light sugars on the nose. Flavour has a nice, bitter orange peel, dry tropical fruit, light sugary malts. Dry and bitter. Nice.
