Draft. Hazy golden amber color, fluffy white head. Nice aroma of citrus, peach, pineapple. Taste is fruity, malty, just a touch of bitterness at the finish.

Thanx Cody.
This was poured into a pint glass and a stange.
The appearance had a glossy amber color with a one finger white foamy head in the pint glass and a two and a half finger white foamy head in the stange. Both had the same foamy stringy lacing after the head died.
The aroma smelled the same in both glasses: light cooked fruity slightly caramel breadiness over top of a herbal grassiness.
The taste followed the aroma, it was pretty much the same.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a decent sessionability about it. The carbonation was okay for the style and for me. There’s a light toasty edge rolling over my mouth.
Overall, decent altbier I think I could do again, its nothing special, but nothing bad.

Large sized sample poured by the breweries Southern California Market Manager Jenny Ramos during a Beer and Indian food evening in The Clay Oven, irvine, Orange County on 14th July 2014. Mini-haze to my glass, the bottle already being half empty by the time I got to the Mission area. No head to speak of. Expected a bigger hop profile to be honest. There were plenty around and mostly giving the brew a citrus more than a bitter taste and feel. I thought it easy to drink but lacking in interest compared to many of the other beers that were on offer during a lovely evening of good food and great beers.

Decent sized sample poured by the breweries Southern California Market Manager Jenny Ramos during a Beer and Indian food evening in The Clay Oven, irvine, Orange County on 14th July 2014. Red hue to this brew, the head off-white and clingy. Malty front in both the nose and taste, the hops are there as well though and come through loud and clear with a mild citrus feel to their flavouring. No expert on this style/type of beer but I liked this one.
