Weekend afternoon date with my wife.
Bright, amber tea brew, quick-hitting head.
Lots of cherry skin on the nose with some warm undertone of spice.
Sour cherry, edible floral, savory greens, lemon lime Gatorade. Inviting tartness that isn't too much. Sloshable & less complex than in past years. Also haven't had it warm, like they serve it during the winter.
Thin, warming, welcoming, solidly good. Wife liked this too.

Near the end of this wifey & me outing. Remaining list is looking a little repeatable.
Half hazy, golden pour into one of their standard long pints, with some stiff foam & a sticky cascade.
Lots of banana aroma with some wet salt & sand.
Banana, lemon, blanched wheat & leafy greens, clove oil.
Soft carb, soft body.
Very mellow & lacking flavor.

Wife liked this one. Five points banked.
Raspberry iced tea pour, lingering bleached lace.
Nose is raspberry, lime leaf, heavy on the sweaty socks.
Blackberry sharpness, fresh Cabernet Franc or something else red & light. Big bubblegum & grassy endtrails. Fruity.
Thin, dry, airy, delicate, easy abv feels.
Well done.

On tap at the source with the wife. Round 3-ish.
Hazy honey brown pour, lingering off-white foam.
Smells exactly like a pumpkin ale, cinnamon centric warm spices.
Cinnamon & cherry, bitter greens, dusty texture, high acid, woody tannins.
Low carb, soft palette.
Decent idea but the keg is out of season. Very meh.

With the wife on a west side excursion.
Fresh tea leaves, citrus & stone fruit notes - 4.8%
Dark orange gold, bright, active, everlasting shaving cream head.
Smells like a hoppy pils with a wink of orange zest.
Soft herbal, stuffy euro hops, bitter tea leaves masking helles sweetness. It's now just a good springtime American lager.
Refreshing.

Crazy active pint at the source with wifey. Bright medium gold, long & lingering dollop of head.
Descriptor says guava & that subtly comes through in the nose alongside more traditional Euro hops.
Noticable apricot & fresh peas with some dry cracker malt.
Thin, airy, low abv.
Sessional & solid. Drink up.

Rainy day, at the source. No food truck.
Clear, fruit punch pour, nice head.
Dirty beets, herbal & soft papaya nose.
Not sweet, slight green fruit sourness & heavy earthy beet evil. Stops suddenly & lacks any bite.
