On tap at the source... Pours an effervescent hazy lemony orange hue and topped with a thin film of wispy white head... Aroma
... Flavors of semi-tart oak and lemon accents with a touch of grapefruit. The initial has an odd woody old fruit. It’s that throws things off. Lighter than medium bodied with semi-lively carbonation. Pretty refreshing though.

Initial is gentle banana and sweetness, touch tart funk and brett. Gentle spice. Middle is sweeter and wheaty, with oak, gentle spice. Vanilla, creamy tart fruit. Backend is gentle sweetness, a touch tart, apple, dry brett and straw, grass. Meh. Lacks character. Serviceable mellow sour, gentle flavors, solid offering but a bit bland and boring overall. Perhaps more nuanced than I was looking for.
