Bottled, thanks marbles! Cloudy pale orange. Estery, orangey nose. Sweet and soft with notes of peach and fraspberry, Mild and true to style, but with it’s own twist. Good stuff.

Very cloudy yellow. Slightly wheaty aroma. Flavour is wheaty, a little bit tart, with moderate sweetness and light yeastiness. Not particularly distinctive, but not a bad beer.

Harrisburg Beer Festival 2... Draft... Murky, sunshine yellow ale with a tiny, creamy, white head. Apple, mandarin orange, tobacco, clove and apricot in the nose. Well-balanced, citrusy flavor with traces of spice and lemon peel. Light-bodied and fizzy. Short, crisp, clean finish. Not a fan of this Summer style... and this festival was (appropriately) full of them.
