On tap at Aeronaut, pours a cloudy murky brown with a small beige head. Aroma brings out toasted malt, with earthy notes and dirty yeast. Flavour is along the same lines, with dirty earthy notes, toasted malt and soil. Dirty but has some depth for being such a low ABV beer. Meh.

On tap at Aeronaut, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of carrot notes, little else. Flavour is puzzling, with dirty, earthy carrots that taste like they still have soil on them. Light sweetness in there. Not impressed.

On tap at Aeronaut, pours a cloudy orangey golden with a medium white head. Aroma brings out a cloudy golden orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of estery notes, along with biscuity malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with totally inauthentic esters from the saison yeast. Sweet and lacking depth. Not good.

Canned 5.16, drunk 5.19.18.
Heavily hazy, lemon-yellow with light peach hues about. Large white head shows moderate retention.
Tangerine, juicy peach-apricot and dainty, honey-like malts give way to a more lush, yet not heavy, tropical character showing mango and key lime. No aggressiveness whatsoever here and really preserves the levity of the base beer while just intensifying the aromatics and overall hop denseness. No alcohol or flaw.
Soft, juicy, malty and full of apricot, strawberry, pineapple, mango and bright, yet not bitter citrus. Soft honey from the malt alongside tight carbonation creates a supple texture and attenuation is high. Light biscuit, a pinch of pine and grapefruit lend just enough balancing dryness/bitterness while bright yellow fruits linger on. Incredible stuff, obviously having taken great care in brewing it, and living up to the hype and then some.

Taster pour at the source. Appearance is hazy, light brown with no sparkle, thin ring of white head with fair retention. Aroma is wheat, wet cardboard, mild fruit. Taste is wheat, fruity esters. Palate is light-to-medium bodied with thin texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, a respectable representative of the style but not earth shattering.

Taster pour at the source. Appearance is lightly hazy, light amber with no sparkle, thin ring of off-white head with poor retention. Aroma is yeast and grain. Taste begins champagne yeast, progresses to grain and ends slightly chlorinated. Palate is light bodied with thin, frothy texture, soft carbonation and dry finish. Overall, did not get the fruit, citrus or pine. A miss for me.
