Once tunnel vision moved on this became my ol’ trusty if you will. Good taste, good aroma, overall great brew.

Draft at the brewpub: poured a cloudy dark orange with a medium sized beige head. Mild hop aroma with some candyish notes. Flavor is fruity, mild sweetness initially followed by a slightly tart twang. Mild citrus. Earthy hops with a nice bitter finish. Good.

On tap at Rich O’s Publick House when I stopped on the way to Dark Lord Day. Pours fairly clear gold with a persistent off-white head. The aroma has plenty of malt and citrus hops. A dry bittereness leads off for the flavor profile and is quickly followed by some maltiness. Well balanced and not too over the top. A good easy-drinking beer, especially for someone just becoming initiated into the realm of craft beer.

Sampled at St. Louis microfest. A fine attempt at the style. Pours amber with a dense off-white head. The aroma has huge grassiness with lots of pale / pils malt. Medium / body with semi-soft carbonation. The flavor starts very grassy with some spiced hops - the grassiness is really just off the charts. The finish is very grainy and grassy. Easily one of the best I’ve had of the the style.

Pours burnished golden with a fully receding white head. Aroma of fresh hops, noble, herbal, and grassy. Taste is herbal, slightly resinous, with a rich maltiness and lots of hoppy character. Mouthfeel is medium full bodied, resinous with lively carbonation. Marked as 5.5% ABV and 67 IBU when sampled.

Draft at the brewpub. Pours light amber to almost brown. Clean nose with some light evergreen hops and dry malt. Lots of yummy hop flavor and very bitter.
