Mug at the brewery. Pours a light gold. Aroma is soft and a little fruity, surprisingly. A dash of papery hops is here. Flavor is super light but has that mild fruitiness like apples, some hops. This is a light beer for sure, but it’s clean and refreshing at least.

This is a popular beer at Front Street. The beer poured a clear yellow. It is a light bodied beer. The draft had nice head . The wheat malt gives it a unique taste. It is good everyday beer. Nothing special.

Draught at the brewpub. Pours golden straw color with big white head and good lacing. The aroma is spicy hops and some pine, green twigs, and grain. The flavor is mildly floral with some odd planty tones and a mellow sweetness. It dries a bit toward the crisp finish. Not bad.

Even nearly flat this is a tasty beer. I was afraid this growler had passed its prime when on my way out of the brewpub I overheard an employee say how he spent all weekend filling growlers. I picked it up on Wednesday and am drinking it on Thursday. Unfortunately, there is extremey little carbonation to this beer. However, it is quite nice tasting. Malts kind of coat the tongue but cutting through it all is a nice hop bill that builds up some steam. Little bit of a breadiness to it. Poured a very clear gold with hardly a bubble in the glass.
