Draft at Mugs Alehouse. Lots of Fruit on the nose,slightly musty, Pours light golden and hazy with a big frothy white head. Sweet fruits on the palate, I get peach and an almost bubblegum like characteristic that other people have described, Also a bit of tart bitterness. Interesting.

Tap @ Linda Vista "DoBelgo" on the board. Pours a deep golden orange with a frothy off white head. Nose held the usual big citrus hop in addition was a unique Belgian / bubble gum character.....different and awesome!

Tap at the tasting room with WeeHeavySD. Sweet fruity nose. Lots of big bright citrusy hops... grapefruit/orange/lemon and a big piny spiciness as well. The yeast is quite prominent throwing off a sweet clove and bubble gum flavour that works pretty well with the big orange citrus. Really hoppy and very, very, tasty.

Tap @ Homebrew mart with JoeMcphee. Pours gold with a tan head. Nose is swet and hoppy, and great. Taste is hoppy and yeasty and awesome, really cool unique combo.
