Brewery draught, 7/22/23. Moderately hazy, light lemon-brass-golden. Creamy white head is well-retained. Juicy white wine, indeed. Clean and bright with a white bread/honey-like malt backing balancing nicely. No alcohol or resin. Juicy, though with some punchy bitterness, perfumey and yet sweaty too. Not as much malt depth/texture as I'd hoped for, though I know it's very low abv. Very earthy, funky, almost poopy. Still, it's competent and if not super malty, it's not exactly watery.

Brewery draught, 7/22/23. Clear, brass golden. Small, white head sits at cover. Bit of sweaty funk, good mineral and clean, not overly bready base malts. Low on crude yeast character. Soft, malty/buckwheaty chewiness with rustic character, light lemon, white pepper and almost a pineapple note. Good depth and attenuation. Clean with herbal hops gently lingering alongside nutty buckwheat and peppery phenols.

Pint at the brewery. Look... you opened your business in the heart of New England. You have to have a hazy IPA on the menu. This one is a translucent dark yellow, fluffy white head. Fairly standard nose, some melon and some fruit, oats, maybe some lactose. Flavor is more tropical, but it's all fairly muddled. There is definitely oat lurking. Medium bodied, lightly sweet. Fine.

Tap at the brewery, pours a mostly clear burnt orange with a ring of white head. Nose has dough and grain, some fall fruits. Flavor is really just sweet tea and grain. This one was a bit off. I saw Travlr give it a 4.0, but to me this was off for the style. Both the flavor and the body. And Travlr's palate was probably blown anyway. Off dry finish.

Pint at the brewery, pours a clear gold with some fizzy white head. Nice nose, light grist and grain, grapefruit and some tropicals. Flavor has grapefruit and some herbs and some soap, the pineapple really comes on late. Travlr said it looks like a West Coast and drinks like an East Coast and I'm not too sure. There is a refreshingly dry bite on the end that still makes you think more dunguness crab than lobster.

Pint at the brewery pours a murky brown/black with some white head. Nose has malt and molasses, toffee, light cocoa. Flavors all follow. Straight up and down stout, focused on the malt and the roast, light coffee grounds, light carob. Dry finish. Easy drinker and true to style.
