This was the best new beer on offer at ABC Kitchen. An over-hyped restaurant that over-hypes and over-complicates its fare. Too noisy, nice furniture, ok salads and ravioli.
A: Pours tangerine body capped with white one inch head with retention and ample lace.
S: The aroma is composed of malt, classic pale ale, with salted lemon kind of like a margarita ring.
T: Flavor was salty wheat pretzel, malt, and salted, sliced lemons with hints of sea, boardwalk, sun, straw,grass, orange peels from the nice hops.
F: Light, creamy body, that finishes perfectly balanced. Great food beer.
O: Simple is good, get the body, feel, look, and balance right and you have a 4+ beer.

Pours murky, gold in color with 1/2 inch head . Taste is cereal grain, grass, and light salt at the end. Light bodied, moderate carbonation and slightly sweet. Was expecting more of a gose style ale, but this is more blonde ale with a just a touch of salt. makes for an ok beer, but not one I am likely to revisit.

Don't really know where ur getting that antg8989. Not sure if we're drinking the same beer. No murky mud. No Pilsner malts. An airy head that fades quick and leaves a nice lace. Crisp and refreshing off the bat with a nice carbonation. A good summer ale. Followed by a sweetness that's balanced with a slight salty flavor noting saltines. Finishes with just enough hops to justify itself without being too bitter and jading it's refreshing nature. More of a lighter summer beer for the craft fan. I'd compare it to Blue Point's spring fling ale. Not exactly mind blowing but I'd bring a case to a bbq
