Tallboy can, born on 5/19/20 enjoy by 8/19/20 sampled 6/20/20
Label list East Kent Golding and Cascade hops

Appearance: Yellow gold glass, quite hazy being almost opaque, holds a thin white head that gives a little lacing.

Aroma: Mild, some earthy hops, a bit of grain.

Taste: Earthy hops, bit dusty, would have sworn these were Fuggle hops which I don't enjoy. A bit of citric in the background, bready yeast, fairly well balanced, no off flavors.

Mouthfeel: Gritty, medium low carbonation, medium body, clean finish.

Overall: Not my favorite hop profile, but it's a well made beer. Easy drinking, not particularly English.

I got a tall boy can of this beer from my good friend and old neighbor from the 'Wego. It poured a slightly hazy golden with white head that is not leaving much lace. The scent had pale Belgian ipa notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with slightly spour Belgian malt base with floral hop presence. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it is a good beer.

16 oz can mfgr 7/18/24 into a nonic pint glass.
L: SRM 3 Pours clear light pale yellow with a cookie-like 1/4" white head, lush steady carbo, head recedes to a thick frothy drift, very light spotty lacing.
S: Apple, pear, distant fruit bread with warming.
T: Gentle spiced apple, lightly grassy, grapefruit zest, partially sour with sweet tart notes in the finish which goes wide, it has a light hint of crackery bread in the background and is very gently pale.
F: Slightly lively then soft medium-light bodied feel with a medium-length fairly dry finish. The tongue gets dry.
O: This beer leans towards being a Saison of sorts IMO. Grapefruit zest taste is mainly responsible for the bitterness here. It is indeed a good summer beer but is a bit off style. It is good.
