Draught at Power Beer Fest, 5/14/22. Lightly hazy, lemon-blonde. Small, off-white head showing moderate retention. Lightly fruity strawberries in the nose, barely any hops. Some light citrus and hints of pine. Sparse, crackery malts. Lightly sweet strawberry is done well, albeit lightly, just like everything else here. Light, sparse, crackery malts, not much depth with very minimal hops. Low bitterness, low flavor, fruity. Clean.

Dark yellow color with an alcohol and grapefruit aroma. Taste is heavy on hop bitterness, very little sweetness from malt. Bitter hoppy aftertaste.

Can pour from the brewery. It's a cloudy yellow with no sparkle, finger-width off white foam head with poor retention and light lacing. Aroma is cracker and mild sweet and tart fruit with yeast. Taste is similar to aroma with lemon tart/sweet—somewhat kolsch-like. Mouthfeel is light side of light-to-medium bodied with frothy texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, interesting APA in that it has kolsch-like qualities.

Nice and hazy. And they use it in their pizza dough? That’s the dream.
