16 oz can from Cork n Bottle, via Kevin, thanks bud, 6/8/26. Pours a mostly clear golden / yellow color with a big, foamy white head and some moderate, streaky lacework. Grainy, grassy, light melon, heavy citrus rind. Dry with that rind-style bitterness. Fairly flavorful. Very good.

Draft at the brewery, 5/31/26. Fully unclear darker yellowish color with a thin white head. Very sugary sweet, caramel, brown sugar, light banana. So sugary. Fun, but way too sweet for me.

Redbud from The Seed: A Living Beer Project

8.4/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8.5 Texture 9 Overall 8.5

16 oz can from Cork n Bottle, 6/8/26. Pours a mostly clear caramel color with a beige head and some light, streaky lace. Caramel, earth, grains, spice, resin, and pine. Bright and fairly bitter. Lots of flavor. Highly drinkable. Nicely dry. Just an absolute crusher. I've been saying this for many years, but if this style makes a comeback, I will not complain.
