On tap at Hinesburgh Public House on 10/07/2018.
Appearance: ruddy dark yellow to cloudy orange color with a bar pour's kind of slim white foamy head which dissipated into oblivion and didn't bother to leave any lace
Aroma: sweet and tart strawberry whiffs; bitter rhubarb with sly tartness to it, lighter salty tones
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a sweet to tart and slightly bitter sort of way with the salty notes coming in a bit stronger here than in the aroma; finishes tart, sweet with strawberry-ish vibes & a speck of sweet wheat
Texture: light to medium bodied; wants to be sessionable but seemed to want to come close to being sipped; slightly smooth as some tart to sour-ish accents enact light harsh character to the tongue but it just seems super faint
Overall: I say nice find on tap as it hit the spot that day and this would be one I would frequent again.

Smash Beer Vermont Chinook
brewed by Vermont Pub & Brewery

Appearance: thick hazy burnt yellow/orange colored with a two finger white frothy head which dissipated nicely and left a lot of messy lace
Aroma: peaches, apricots, mangoes with a pop of citrus zest adding some zest & a little bit of bitterness then a very light dose of creamy sweetness ever so softly at the end
Flavor: seems to take the citrus zest to mesh sweet to bittersweet with the peachy, mango and apricot hoppy tones; finishes citrus zesty and peachy with a little bit of stickiness
Texture: medium bodied; sessionable; good smoothness along the tongue with a low key carb
Overall: works for me as a NEIPA and a nice one for Summer even if the Summer equinox hasn't occurred yet.

Precept from Bissell Brothers Brewing was the one that did it!

Appearance: golden yellow color with a good transparency about it with a two finger white foamy head which gently died off and left some messy sticky lace
Aroma: spicy Saaz-like hops with some earthy and floral hop accents over top of some clean bready/biscuity malts
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a fine spicy to sweet blend; finishes crisp, smooth and spicy hopped
Texture: light to medium bodied - maybe a touch closer to light bodied; sessionable; good smoothness along the tongue; good carb level
Overall: they're calling this a German pils but I somewhat wonder if this is closer to a Czech one? Hmmmm...either way, I'd definitely return to this.
