Draft: Poured a clear light brown color ale with a small foamy head. Aroma of dry nutty flavours with some grainy notes. Taste is also a mix of grainy malt notes with light nutty flavours and a dry finish. Body is about average for style with good carbonation. Not bad thought buckwheat notes are not as smooth as I was expecting.

Draft: Poured a pale hazy yellow color ale with a small foamy head. Aroma of wheat malt and jasmine notes is OK. Taste is a mix between some dry wheat malt with stronger than expected jasmine notes. Body is light with good carbonation. I thought this was too perfumy for my own taste.
