22oz bottle. Pours amber with a creamy white head, good lace. Smells metallic hoppy and semi-sweet caramelly malty. Medium, syrupy body with good carbonation.

pours a semi-hazy orange with a small off-white head, good lacing.
smell is malt, some grains, hint of corn, some citrus, a little caramel.
taste is thick, hoppy, slight grapefruit, malt in the back, touch of caramel, some citrus, touch of spice, nice bitter ending.
overall a very nice refreshing beer.

22oz bottle. Nice looking beer, dark gold with a nice white head. Nice hoppy aroma. Full hop flavor, real nice for a lager. Pretty good.

on cask at Stout NYC. Body is very cloudy dark golden yellow, with a thin creamy off-white head. Lots of yeast chunks. Aroma is sweet and bready malt like challah, some stone fruit, and armpit-like hops. Bready malt flavor is more like sourdough, fruit is more like the peach pit, and floral hops are too resiny. Finish like envelope glue.

vegetable aroma and light color with white head this brew looks all lemony with again a white foamy head. much as i like the color it usually spells mediocre beer but this brew is named well and has a nice steel hop flavor. clean flavors and well bodied. light malt character refreshing and a hop heads quencher.

From the 22 ounce bottle. Pours gold with thin white head. Light aroma, just a little bit of hops. Bitter flavor from the hops, which not as much balance for the malt as I would have thought. Kind of boring overall though.

Bottle. Pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma of citrus hops and sweet malt. Taste is the same as aroma. Medium mouthfeel with a mild to moderate amount of bitterness and a crisp finish. Good.

22oz bottle. Cool label. Hazy orange pour. Light grain is the most noticeable thing in the aroma along with a little hop spice. Flavor is spicy with citrus hops, just a touch of malt that makes a week attempt at balance and lastly what I would call a bubblegum flavor. It’s not bad, it’s just nothing I’ll go looking for. Dry finish on a medium body.
