[Growler] shared by Skyview. Clear gold pour with a soapy off white head. Grassy aroma. Not overpowering hops, citrus, and grapefruit. Medium mouthfeel, with a nice, but not quite enough, hop quality.

From Skyview’s growler. Bitter, grassy hops. Orange color. Thin white head and light red color. A session beer with very low bitterness, not bad at all for what it is.

(growler from Skyview) Pours orange with a white head. Aroma has some pepper, citrus, and some graniness too. Taste is pretty weak with some light sweetness, very light hops, and a strong grainy finish. Medium mouthfeel.

[Growler, thanks Skyview] Pours hazy orange with a small white head. Aroma is a little sweet with a decent amount of hoppiness and quite a bit of grain. The taste is not as good with the grainy malt dominating. Medium-thin mouthfeel. Drinkable, but the taste was really not good compared to the aroma.

Copper color with a thin head. Light orange aroma. Fairly grainy taste and a bitter, slightly acidic finish. Just a bit of orange flavor.
