Draft at Trinity Brass Tap. Pours a clear golden yellow color with a fairly thin head. Sparse sudsy lacing along the glass. Aroma of freshly peeled cucumber skin with some grassy hop notes in the background. Flavor is nice and refreshing dominated by fresh cucumber. Very easy drinking yet interesting at the same time.

Sparkling gold pour, white head. Flavor of fresh cucumber and a hint of salt. I was really surprised to notice such a salt presence. But it worked. Nice and crisp, refreshing.

shrubber85 (5972) - Greenville, Indiana, USA - APR 28, 2013
Draft at DLD13. Cucumber and barley malt aroma. Golden yellow with moderate head. Salty cucumber and malt flavor. Very nice and impressive. After having their cucumber saison, didn’t think they could match it with a lager but they absolutely did.

Draft @ DLD. Fresh green cucumber aroma. Starw gold with a moderate creamy head. Sweet melony fresh cucumber flavor. Body on the light side of medium, soft carbonation. Very refreshing sessionable beer. I wish I could get my hands on some of this, as well as their cucumber siason for summer drinking.

pineypower (2146) - Pine Barrens, New Jersey, USA - MAR 16, 2013
Draft at CCB. Pours a nice clear golden color with a very small white head. Aroma is of fresh cut cucumbers, light sweet grainy notes and some mild bitterness. Taste is much the same, amazing how the fresh cucumber comes through like it did, very tasty. Other than the cucumber it has some light grainy bread notes, mild bitterness and a little bit of grass. Really unique.

TheAlum (4283) - Lisle, Illinois, USA - MAR 13, 2013
Draft on tap at Hunahpus Day 2013 (Tampa, FL). Pours a nice golden orange hue, firmer haze, mellow carbonation, frothy whitish head atop dies to a film, laces small. Nice orange golden glow. Aromas are cucumber, fresh, earthy cucumber, mellow sweetness, agua fresca, and gentle sweetness, bready and grainy malts. Initial is mellow yet growing cool cumcumber. Some water, gentle spice, cool earthy vegetal cucumber. Mellow bready malts, straw, dough. Some more cucumber, kiss of lime and mellow bitterness. Middle is cucumber, mellow dryness, bready malts, straw. Lingering firm cucumber, agua fresca, some bready malts, straw, and more cucumber. A bit sweet at times, mellow cool cucumber up front and lingering into the finish. Fun earthy elements, cool and dry. Tasty yet inviting beer. Refreshing, inviting. Not bad.
