On tap at the restaurant today.

Served in a mason jar, this beer is a very hazy orange amber with a dense, off-white head with good retention and decent lacing. The nose is decent. While it's a lot sweeter, breadier and maltier than I care for, this beer is very fresh and has a complementary hop bouquet. There's grapefruit and citrus is modest amounts, as well as a touch of fruit. The malt character is bready and sweet (Vienna? Munich malt?) rather than a caramel-like crystal malt character. That said, it does seem a little bit wort-like. The palate's similar, with the medium body carrying a soft, creamy sweetness and fruity hop character. Bitterness is low, and again, the sweetness is bready. Carbonation is low and creamy, making this feel like it might be served from a cask. Quite solid, though I wish I'd tried their Kolsch instead.
