Description
For us, good living means exploring – the opposite of “comfortable.” It’s not just about craft, but about questing, questioning, transforming “What If” into “Here’s How,” by way of an experiment so crazy, it just might work.

Exploration is the line from local beer maker to World-Class Brewer. It’s a pioneer impulse, and it sets the authentic, rural heartbeat of Southern Tier. It’s how we got here. And by the time others catch up, it’ll be why we’re already somewhere else.

From our wildly innovative founder, Phin DeMink, who’s still a daily inspiration, to the new generation of brewers, thinkers, and drinkers who share our pursuit of what’s next, we keep honing the creative edge of brewing discovery.

So this is an open invitation, to anyone who gives a damn about the difference between a well-crafted beer and a stunningly satisfying encounter with the new. Join us on the road less traveled.

Can from a multi pack. Lightly hazy amber, decent head. Citrus nose, flavor is pretty full bodied for a session but still dry, nice pine notes with hints of caramel. Really nice session beer.

Drunk in VA beach reading The Dark Forest. Hazy yellow, papaya and mango nose, huge fruit bomb. Flavor is full and fruity, tropical start and then peach aftertaste. Moderate to slim body but that keeps it crushable. Really a great profile and not too thick. Likey like!

Can bought in PA from a drive through beer store, drunk in the hotel in VA Beach. Dark yellow amber, decent lacy head. Malty dank citrus nose. Big West Coast flavor, although the bitterness is not too massive, it's a bit on the sweet side of balance. Not the smoothest bitter character but okay. Quite drinkable after a hot baseball game watching the Tides destroy the Stripers within one nine-run inning!

Can purchased at a drive in beer store from a variety pack, drunk in Pennsylvania. Yellow hazy, moderate head, great tangerine nose. Flavor is pretty smooth, mild bitterness, big orangey citrus flavor. Slim body, interesting flavor but not too complex. Easy drinking citra goodness.
