Crazy, odd pink and ruby tinted body with a brownish glow and some slivers of grey on the sides - super odd and looks like 'Thin Man Trial By Wombat'. Aroma of soured, funky yeast with some light tartness, a lot of grassy and herbal hops with some good malt backbone scents and a dash of citrusey notes. Medium-bodied; Strong grassy, herbal and very citrusey hops show at first, but also some funk and bready notes from the relatively pungent yeast that stays with the flavour for a while, all with a good bitterness from all the hops at the very end. Aftertaste shows the grassy and herbal notes with a lot of balance from malt, all pulled in a nice package. Overall, a very nice and fresh hopped beer that hits the crisp grassy and herbal notes with a smooth malt texture, all with a very light level of sweetness and fruitiness, but a crisp, relatively light beer. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from the Department of Beer and Wine in Alexandria, Virginia on 05-June-2020 for US$4,13 sampled at the end of the street, watching the fireworks over our fine city here in Washington on 04-July-2020, Independence Day 2020.
