Taster pour from the source. Appearance is turbid yellow, decent sparkle, fair head. Aroma is lots of melon, some citrus. Taste as aroma. Palate light-to-medium bodied with average carbonation and sweet, mild bitter finish. Overall, the melon is different than your customary IPA and is cool and refreshing.

Taster pour at the source. Appearance is pale yellow/brown with light sparkle, negligible head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is cracker malt, light floral hops. Taste is light cracker malt. This comes off more like a blonde ale or a marzen. Palate is light bodied with soft carbonation and light crackery finish. Overall, fairly pedestrian and not reflecting the interesting description. May have to try a full pint vs. just the taster to give it a full chance.

Growler pour into shaker pint glass. Appearance is turbid, medium brown with finger-width beige head, poor retention, poor lacing. Aroma is roasted malts, coffee, mild vanilla. Taste is roasted malt, vanilla, smoky, coffee. Palate is medium-to-full bodied with average texture, soft carbonation and bittersweet roasted finish. Overall, decent but not strong or weighty.
