16 oz can purchased at the brewery in Mission, Kansas to go. The pour is a mostly clear pale golden with a fizzy white head that dissipates quickly. The aroma is tart yeast, buttery Chardonnay, and general funk. The taste is sharp tart yeast up front, followed by citrus, and the Chardonnay and oak carries most of the flavor through to the finish. The palate is medium bodied, pretty close to still carbonation and the oak tart yeast finish. Solid.
