This draft brew from the brewery poured a small sized head of foamy finely sized white colored bubbles that were mostly lasting and left behind a uncarbonated transparent light and a fair lacing. The mild aroma was malt hop. The mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish with a mellow fruity aftertaste. The balanced flavor contained notes of sweet honey fruity hops and malt. Delicious and one I would certainly like to have again.

Brewvival Trip Beer 128. 32 ounce growler from the brewpub. Pours a clear copper color with a medium sized fizzy head. Decent head retention. Aroma of bread, candi sugar, melon. The taste is tart fruits, melon, banana, bread. Medium bodied. Interesting.

Clean yellow pour with one finger of thin white head. The nose is very nice, flavor too. Delicate and ephemeral with a lightly fruity character from the yeast and a supplementing character from the melon. Very tough to describe.

On tap at the brewpub. Pours a hazy peach with a white head that starts at the edges and dissipates completely. Aroma has sweet grain and honeydew with a Belgian yeast note that gives a light spice. Flavor has a nice light honeydew note that is supported by sweet grain and Belgian spice.
