Had on draft at Cigar City, pours a deep golden color with aromas of mild hops, and a touch of spicy wood, and a hint of hops. Flavor follows the aroma with a touch of citrus, and the driftwood adds a nice spicy note to the beer.

On draft at the brewery. Pours a clear yellow with a white head. Nose is light malt, slight floral hops, and a bit of salty (sandy?) wood. Flavor is similar with a bit of light citrus hops. Wood presence makes this one a bit interesting and unique. Light in body and an interesting concept.

Pours deep golden. Nose is simple grains and mild hops mixed with a subtle spicy wood character. The flavor is clean and enhanced by a unique spicy wood character. The Driftwood really brings a rather forgettable beer into a different level.
