Keg at the Whip In - Austin. Pours hazy gold with a thick, creamy white head. Clean citrusy hops in the nose, some tangerine, a little pale malt, melon. Light to medium sweet flavour with low bitterness, ripening citrus, more tangerine, a little meringue, dough, melon, peach. Medium bodied with delicate carbonation. Finishes with further juicy citrus character, pale bread, light pine, more peach, grapefruit, tangerine. Great stuff. Really smooth, fresh and drinkable.

Shared 25.4 oz. bottle. Pours a hazy pale golden with a fluffy white head. Aroma is very fresh with grapefruit, citrus, and pineapple. Taste is citrus, grapefruit, funk, malt, and mildly bitter mosaic hops. More fruity than anything else. Even picking up a bit on the blueberry, though I’m not sure I’d have been able to identify the flavor as blueberry without having read the deScription. Quite refreshing. Lives up to the hype.

Out of the bottle in March ’16. Really enjoyed this compared with the first time I had it. Massive dank and citrus. Hazy yellow and retained white head. Flavor follows aroma. Scored 3.2 the first time, so while I would score this batch a 3.8, I am upping it to 3.6 to reflect a middle ground. First tasting in Feb ’16: Tap at Craft Pride in Austin. Massive cat litter dominates the aroma! Hazy deep gold with white head that is fleeting. Taste combines massive juice, pine and slight cat.

[1/30/16] Bottle sample at the Encomium bottle share, after RateBeer Best awards ceremony at Hyatt Vineyard Creek Hotel in Santa Rosa. Thanks everyone who shared bottles! Golden. Hoppy aroma, overripe fruits. Slightly sweetish.

On tap at Hi Hat. Very citrus, more pineapple than grapefruit. Big hops presence in aroma and taste, falls off after that. Up front, but weak finish, still tasty.
