Clear straw-gold pour with a medium thick white head that burns away steadily to a film. Partial rings of lace. Citrus, malt and hops in the nose. Light-bodied with flavors of grassy hops, citrus and roast malt. The finish is clean and fruity with a mildly hopped aftertaste. Above average overall.

Pour is a hazy blonde with a large white head. Aroma is some lemon hops and not much else. Flavor is kind of nothing. Some generic malt I guess but nothing else really shows up. Kind of a boring America blonde ale but for a good cause.

Draft shaker pint at Cook’s Lobster and Ale house on Bailey island, Maine. The pour is a clear golden with a small white head that leaves behind coating lace. The aroma is faint grass, floral hop and honey malt. The taste is a clean, softer floral hop and the honey soft sweet from the malt forms the backbone. The palate is light bodied with soft carbonation and a bit of sweetness to the finish. Clean, easy drinking, beer.

Cask at gbbf 2022 day 1. A clear golden yellow coloured pour with a halo of white head. Aroma is nice floral hop, piney. Flavour is composed of semi sweet juicy hop, low dank sticky, zesty citrus, lime, pine. Palate is semi sweet, sticky hop, grass, lime. Nice unique hop. Like it.
