Description
Foam. It's always been an unconscious calling like drifting into a cumulus cloud bank on a sun-drenched day, or collapsing in a frothy curl of a breaking wave. Foam; it's natural beauty that rises up and is here and gone in a moment in time. I have spent my working life in foam, beer foam that is, brewing beer, conjuring up mixtures of malt and hops to ferment into a crowning moment of beer. Great beer has always sat under foam. Foam. It's not one ingredient that gives stability; it's many interwoven to create a structure of strength pouring out visual excitement. As I sit for a time, I enjoy that moment. All that remains is the lacing that adorns the empty glass and the making of a great memory. Until next time, see you under the Foam...

On tap at Foam on 07/02/2018
Appearance: thick hazy purple color with a half a finger's worth of pink foamy head which dissipated at a nice pace and left some light lace
Aroma: blueberry sweet to tart character up front, light sweet lemony tones; then some citrusy rind bitterness
Flavor: takes the prior noted aromas and combines to a tart to sweet and light sour vibe adding in a very light dose of salt; finishes blueberry to lemony tart to sour toned
Texture: medium bodied; slightly sessionable; some smoothness and a very little bit of salt stains on the tongue
Overall: one of those "flavored" and/or pastry goses where you have no clue where the "sour-ed" wheat is or if it's even there.

Overall: a pretty nicely done NEDIPA I would return to.

Growler. Purchased on 10/25/2017 and consumed the same day.
Into a flared pilsener glass.
Appearance: chill haze yellow color with a two finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: floral to freshly cut grassy hop spicy to snappy little bit of earthy hop tones; light crackery malt backbone
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a fine snappy sweet to earthy bitter conglomeration; finishes with a slight snappy brisk floral & earthy sweet to bitter quality
Texture: light to medium bodied; sessionable; good smoothness with ample hop spicy nicks to the tongue but the kind of hop spice you want there; good carb level
Overall: a very nicely done Czech pilsener I wish Foam would bring back!

Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet juicy onto an eloquent bittersweet juicy character; finishes crisp and piney with sweet juicy dripping mango and grapefruity notes

On tap at Foam on 10/22/2018.
Appearance: hazy pink to slightly orange color with a finger's worth of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: sweet and tart elderberries up front with a touch of lemon acidity and a little bit of sweet wood rounding out the edges and slightly creates a touch of sour character
Flavor: tart to sweet with a growing sour character as I continued to sip; finishes semi-tart with an ample sour then an underscore of sweetness
Texture: light to medium bodied - maybe a touch closer to medium; somewhat a sipper but part of me was wondering if I could have downed this beer a bit quicker? hmmm, good dose of smoothness but also a good deal of some tart to sour harshness - it wasn't anything too bothersome but obviously noticeable
Overall: yes, this was a sour/wild ale that seemed like it came from the old days back when this style used to make you pucker or "try" to make you pucker - this one, well, the pucker didn't really show its face, to be honest.

On tap at Foam on 01/20/2020.
Appearance: semi-bright orange to glossy yellow color with a finger's worth of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: pineapple/passionfruity/peachy and lime notes with an ample sweet creamy tone
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to tart quality; finishes leaning into those fruits in a tart to semi-sweet sort of way
Texture: medium bodied, leaning into being sessionable-ish? hmmm, maybe; great amount of smoothness along the tongue; good carb about it
Overall: nice as a fruited tart ale and I could welcome it again in that respect
