Poured from a 12 oz can into a mimic glass.

Golden straw in color. 3 fingers of foamy head with good retention. As it dissipates bubbles stick to the glass fairly thick. Very clean look. No haze.

Citrusy nose. Very slight hint of pine needles.

Very citrusy flavor. Nearly juicy, but not quite. Very small hint of pine in the taste. Very clean malt balance.

Somewhat sticky body. Good carbonation.

Poured from 12oz can into a pint glass.

Appearance: medium yellow hue with a good cloudiness and a thin layer of frothy white foam. Nice.

Smell: lightly tart with a nice lemony character. Interesting, but not really stylistically appropriate.

Taste: lightly sweet with a somewhat tart quality. Hops are lemony and noble. Decent, although again not really right for the style.

Mouthfeel: medium body with a decent carbonation and creaminess.

Overall: interesting and refreshing, if a bizarre take on a kristallweizen.

Pours a hazy orange with a foamy tan head that settles to a partial film on top of the beer. Foamy swaths of lace form around the glass on the drink down. Smell is of tropical fruit, grass, and peppery hop aromas. Taste is much the same with tropical fruit, citrus juice, and grass flavors on the finish. There is a mild amount of hop bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a good level of carbonation with a crisp mouthfeel. Overall, this is a very good beer that is tasty and easy to drink.

Serving type: can.

On tap at Santa Barbara tap room.

Described as a hoppy Weiss.

Appearance is of a Weiss. Taste is lighter and hoppy than I expected. This is pretty enjoyable. Better than most session IPAs.

Nice hop character, with a balance of wheat, and slight sourness. I consider this an IPA, and more on the lines of Lil Sumpin Very easy to drink, and very enjoyable from start to finish
