Sample at the brewpub. This brew is a slightly hazy light amber color with a medium sudsy off-white head that dissipates steadily. Sticky top ring of lacing with strings below it. Aroma of grapefruity hops and a touch of malt. Medium body with a moderately bitter hops character that is very citrusy. Notes of sweet malt and pine as well. The finish is hoppy with a lingering grapefruit aftertaste. Decent APA overall.

Nitro sample at the brewpub. Pours a clear orange-amber color with a medium foamy light beige head that diminishes to a lasting film. Large sticky patches of lacing. Aroma of floral hops and malt. Medium body with flavors of floral hops, bready malt and some pine. The finish is smooth and malty with a light hops bite. Not bad overall but I would like to try off the tower sometime.

Sample at the brewpub. This brew pours a clear yellow-gold color with a thin and foamy white head that has pretty good retention. Stringy lacing on the glass. Aroma of ginger and malt. Light body with flavors of ginger and other sweet spices, toasted malt and citrus. The finish is reminiscent of ginger ale. Average and kind of weird beer overall.

Tap at Vine Street - Saison? - okay - I must say this tasted pretty much like an IPA to me, perhaps with some really light belgian phenols and a touch of estery character - huge, earthy, herbal, woody hop character in the nose - potent bitterness in the flavor, but it is not abrasive in the least - fairly strong sweetness to balance, adding some orange-ish flavor to compliment the hops - dry, lingering bitter finish - quite tasty - I like it a lot, but not as a saison.
