Pour is a hazy IPA look with a large white head. Aroma is crackery pils malt with Belgian yeast esters. Flavor is also estery with a herbal hops finish. It did not looked like a triple to start out with but everything else was spot on.
Pour is a clear gold with a large white head. Aroma is fruity yeast esters with some powdered sugar. Flavor is a more fruity perfume ester with a bone dry chalky malt. A little bitterness is left on the tongue after the swallow. Nice profile of this saison yeast.

Shaker pint draft at Pierpont’s in Kansas City, Missouri. The pour is amber clear golden with a small off white head. The aroma is cereal grain, soft floral hop, all fresh and clean. The taste is a nice simple balance between the cereal grain flavors and the soft floral softly bitter hops. The palate is light to medium with soft carbonation and a crisp finish. Nice drinkable Golden.

Willebecher glass ½ pour draft at Transparent Brewing Companyin Grandview, Missouri. The pour is a clear lighter yellow with a small white head. The aroma is honey corn and some general malt sweetness. The taste is clean, sweet malt, with some corn showing in the back. I’m not sure this actually has corn, just has a sort of a generally vegetal corn flavor. The palate is light to medium bodied with soft carbonation and the clean vegetal finish.

Goblet glass ½ pour draft at Transparent Brewing Company in Grandview, Missouri. The pour is a slightly hazed brown orange with a small off white head. The aroma is a toasty mineral, very engaging nose. The taste is a toasty biscuit malt with a hint of apple fruit sweetness, and finishes with a bit of earth and more mineral. The palate is light bodied, soft natural carbonation and the dry mineral earth finish. Solid bitter, easy drinking.

32 oz. crowler can from the Brewery. Thanks Ashley! Pours a mostly clear gold color with a white head and good retention. Fair lacing. Light malt aroma. Lightly sweet malt flavor with a faint lemony finish. Tastes like a light pilsner to me. Medium-light body. Good carbonation. Low bitterness. Clean, smooth, crisp and refreshing. And easily repeatable.

~8 oz draft pour at a beer dinner at Transparent Brewing in Grandview, Missouri. This was served with the 3rd course. The pour is a slight haze ruby golden with a foamy tan head. The aroma is soft toast malt along with a bit of Lactose and then a sort of unclean dank basement aroma. The taste is fruit, bread, toast. the tart cherry fruit and the basement muddled esters towards the back. As it warms, I get a mild cough syrup character. The palate is medium bodied with lower carbonation and the ester yeast and some grape cherry sweet tart in the back. This didn't really strike me as a Flanders Red. The flavors did come together a bit better with food.
