As pictured.
Lightly fruity, caramel-accented bread and herb with spice lingering. Crisp, mineralic and clean.
Rich malts becoming quite bready, moderately toasty and very dry and crisp on the finish. Herbal accents throughout. Clean and easy drinking with good balance and flavor.

Leafy, floral, earthy, funky and very interesting. Not gonna lie, I'm kind of getting some weed-like terpene character. That dry, catty, mega-spicy character. Bready malts balance.
Rounder, softer and fruitier than the nose suggests, with the catty, spicy character more or less folded in to the malt nicely. Bready and rich malts linger with big pepper and moderate bitterness. Super unique and interesting stuff.

Nice mix of grapefruit and pine with a hint of papaya and mango. Rich white bread and no toast or caramel. No resin or alcohol.
Juicy almost. Grapefruit and spicy pine with aforementioned light tropical accents. Rich, honey and white bread-like malts easily balance the moderate bitterness. Chewy malty pininess lingering.

Big, round, fruity, earthy coffee from the black patent. Nutty with light ash and low salinity. Low sweetness. Clean.
Gentle salinity with dark chocolate and fruity roast. Medium to med light body with a touch of sweetness to keep it comfortable. Just enough earthiness and roasted character without overdoing it.

Not massively aromatic but what's the is excellent. Bright noble-like hop with big herb and soft floral notes. Snappy finish with more spare maltiness, though certainly not under malted. Very clean with light white bread and light, fresh herb lingering.
Snappy, interesting hop with some rich honey and big bread from the slightly chewy malt. Half floral half herbal. Honey and pepper balance each other on the long finish.

Clear, bright, brass-golden. Small, white head.
Well that smells incredible...clean, snappy, herbal hops perfectly wedded with fresh sourdough baguette-like malt. Rich but crisp on the finish with pepper and mineral.
Rich and malty, brightly hoppy, drying out on the finish with crisp yeast and hop and a strong earthy presence. Lightens significantly, as well, with a shorter end and the malt richness not lingering, almost as if something is dulling it. Other than that, though, this is top-notch.

Served in a dimpled mug. Flavor is slightly multi with a mild earthy complex yeast flavor. Yeast and grain driven. Extra crisp and smooth texture. Awesome!

16 ounce draft. Aroma shows bold lemon grass and mild wheat. Flavor is no surprise. Wheat based with hints of lemon citrus and a light lingering lemon grass throughout. Refreshing crisp texture.
