Short pour @Fox Tale. Clear, if slightly jellied pale amber. Mute herbal & sweet lemon nose. I'm obviously ignorant here, but it tastes like a corn lager with some florals & an interesting lemon-ish sourness. Initially crisp, it ends up a little slick & boozy. Like.

Short pour @Fox Tale. Cloudy, pale orange pour. Acidic, lemon, sweet n sour nose. Taste is bitter orange, lime, mineral water. Decently juicy, sour with just a bit of sweetness to round it out. Mimosa-ish. Maybe back sweetened? Prickly & refreshing. Boozy finish. Good.

On tap @Fox Tale. Wine glass. Clear, medium gold, lacy. Herbal, bittersweet nose. Not getting much that's specific. Taste is pine, herbal, barely noticable green tea, big corn flavor, some acid but I don't get the Meyer lemon or much lacto. Crispy, lightly yeasty, not too bitter, easy. Fine.

Tap at the soft open. Pours clear yellow gold, large white head that dissipates slowly leaving good lacing. Aroma is standard saison yeast forward, black pepper and field grass. Floral notes make their way in, but I am not sure what the sunflower seeds are bringing to the table. Medium light body, quite pleasant
