Tall can from Yarmouth Wine & Spirits, Yarmouth MA. Cracked at our apartment in Dennis Port. Pours a deep gold, large white froth atop. Aroma of resinous grapefruit. Continues to taste with a good bitter resinous bite. Nicely balanced, old skool feel.

500mL bottle Fall 2022, #829/1200, drunk 6/3/23. Maple-cherry-auburn. Clear. Small, almost no head, immediately fading to nothing. Smells like a bit of maple but there's good acidity and light oak. There is a strong maple character with pepper from the fermentation. No alcohol at all, no roast. Hazelnut, coffee, maple butter. Soft, malty, sweet for sure with plentiful maple. I think it has enough acidity, though it's close and pushing it on the sweetness. Perhaps had I known, I'd let this sit another year or four. But still a solid, clean, mostly balanced beer with good barrel character and interesting notes all around.

Tap. Unclear golden-orange color with white head. Aroma is dank, a bit yeasty, exotic fruits, nice pack of punch. Taste is the same, a bit murky, yeastcake, but enough fruitiness. Silky mouthfeel, soft carbonation.

Tap @ Lawson's Finest Liquids, Waitsfield. Pours a misty gold, foamy white head. Gentle citrussy aroma. Modest citrussy hoppiness to taste, fairly lacklustre hop presence, but sessionable stuff overall. A lot of mountain bikers present in the taproom, reckon this would probably hit the spot after a day on the trails.

Tap @ Lawson's Finest Liquids, Waitsfield. Aroma of gentle orange citrus. Very light mandarin to taste alongside some noticeable malt grain.. Not massively flavoursome but sessionable and refreshing enough.
