Draught at the Other Side Café, Boston, MA.
Clear amber colour with tiny off-white head. Mild malt, some butter and mild fruity hops in aroma. Butter (diacetyl), malt and mild fruity hops in flavour. No bitterness in aftertaste. Buttery aftertaste. Strange brew.

Tap at cbc. Notes of playdough, lemon zest, grassy earthy leaves, some wheat. Earthy, happy wheat beer with some weird old dough character. Okay.

A lightly hazed amber ale with a thin lacing off white head. In aroma, lightly roasted malt with butterscotch notes and mashed berries. In mouth, a sweetish grainy malt with light woody notes, sustained butterscotch, earthy harshness, so-so. On tap at brewpub, April 17, 2011.
