Thanks to travita for sharing this growler. The beer pours a slightly hazy gold color with a white head. The aroma is wheat, grass and earthy hops. The flavor is a mix of earthy and grassy hops as well as citrus fruit and wheat. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.

corby112 (1904) - philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA - JUN 7, 2010
Served on draft at the brewpub. Pours a hazy golden ripe banana color with dark golden yellow hues when held to a light source and a one finger white head that quickly settles into a lasting ring. Completely opaque. Subtle aroma with hints of light fruit, subtle hops, pilsne malt, grass and straw. Only slightly earthy with hints of apple, pear and banana in the nose. Fuller bodied than I expected with a nic crisp dry earthy hop presence u front that is countered by a nice pale malt backbone as well as some light fruit notes and straw. Apple and banana are the prominent fruit notes. This beer is very complex and flavorful and at 4.9% it is incredibly drinkable.

Enjoyed form a growler on May 21, 2010. Clear, pale yellow color - almost wit-like, with a light citrus aroma. Frothy white head. Light yeast presence and a sweet, lively citrus flavor. Easy, a great summer beer.
