Draft at Who's on First, Ankeny. Suitably hazy gold, with a half finger of foam. Nose is a nice mix of tropical fruit and pine. Liking the taste, with more PNW hop that reinforces the nose. Nice rings of foam down the sides of the glass (which may be more of a tribute to how well they care for the glassware).
