Commercial Description:
A mildly hopped beer with a complex malt character, and a soft creamy head. Soft and fruity with light yeast esters of apricot and orange. It is a refreshing and crisp session beer, with just enough hops to balance and round out the sweetness of the malt. 34 IBU 1.048 OG

I like that it is organic - thats about where this rating ends with the praise. Tight, almost champaign-like carbonation with a cheap sweet malt flavor. Faint spice aroma with a white head on a golden body. Not much else going on here. Somewhat mouth coating for the style of beer.

Not bad. Pours light golden brown. Pours bubbly but quickly goes away. Overall a little on the sour side from a taste prospective and mouthfeel / palate is decent, but not great.

Bottle. Poured cloudy with thin fast disappearing head. Faint grainy aroma. Thin taste, malt and orange. Lingering citrus finish. A very commonplace beer. Not bad, but not good either.

Dark apricot in colour (crappy description!) and cloudy with a good ammount of small grainy sediment (not sure if that or the cloudiness should be there considering it wasn’t in the other bottle that was opened). Poured a small ammount of white cap but produced decent ropy lacing. Aroma comes across very fruity with some grapefruit, oranges and an unknown pink candy. Good fresh hops. Taste is nothing new or different. Mild hops, sour tartness, mild malts and some heated spice that sneaks in near the end. Mouthfeel is a bit too light but solid bitterness, good carbonation and a tart smacking dry aftertaste help make it decent enough. Seemed a bit too gassy, but nothing that would make you explode. Decent beer that would be really good while sitting in the sun while avoiding yardwork.

On tap at the brewpub. Light gold, with very little head. Clean and crisp., like a lager. Not too hoppy.

Pours a medium gold with a thin white head that faded fast. Aroma was yeasty, barnyard hay malt, slight fruity hoppiness under that. Flavour was pretty standard I guess...Earthy malt flavour, which I thought lacked depth. light bitter finish. Would be good as a ’drinking beer’ out of the bottle at the cottage/mowing the lawn...etc.

mellow nose of piney hops. nothing stands out, bland.
