Common descriptors are
Rapture is the second of two beers, released in early 2011 that showcase the differences of a single ingredient. Like the Nerdherder and Monster series did with hops, these beers illuminate the difference that yeast makes in a low strength sessionable summer ale ("Rapture" emplys the fruitier notes of a Belgian abbey yeast, while "Europa" uses a clean German ale yeast).

Rapture: Pale and wheat malts, Nelson Sauvin and NZ Cascade hops, Belgian abbey yeast.
Europa: Pale and wheat malts, Nelson Sauvin and NZ Cascade hops, German ale yeast.
