What's Your Name Mean?
"Want to play a game?" Used to be our response, but because of our growth and your support we're adding this link to ease your curiosity. No, it's not an acronym. Yes, it is a name! But it's not a combination of ours. In fact, Andrew and Kai are brother-in-laws. Each married to 2 of 3 sisters. Richard's brother is married to the third. And Voila! There it is! We are all family by marriage and bond. Oh, and the name.... is the girl's maiden name! Brownie points

Two 5 oz pours on draft at Aslin. Hazy yellow with off-white head. Aromas of lemon lime, very subtle coconut if any. Tastes of big tart lemons, tart acidic notes, very subtle coconut if any. Lemon really strongarms whatever coconut flavor they were going for. Light body with a dry and tart finish. Pretty tasty, would like more coconut though.
