On tap at the source, stemmed glass.

Dense unfiltered liquid wheat, modest white cap, spot and wisp lacing.

Bitter briny aroma of hops, wheat, and yeast.

Grapefruit rind, lots of citrus, piney. some light malt and yeast.

Light and bitter with a modest malt base.

A standout house beer.

Cloudy pale yellow gold. Some lacing. Nose has strong bread and urine notes from the yeast selection. Some citrus underneath. The breadiness continues into the taste, though this is a hoppy, low malt beer. Double dry hopping overcomes the yeast to balance out to a nice citrus finish, slightly sweet. Soft feel moderate bitterness.

Not bad though i dont like the urine tinge.

Growlette from Winooski Beverage. This was poured into a becher pint glass. The appearance was a hazy, semi-cloudy glazed over orange peel color. Finger’s worth of white foamy head dissipates ever so nicely. Spider web lacing. The aroma blends sweet pulpy juiciness to bitter citrus rind, allowing some sweet grassiness to slide in underneath. Subtle pineapple as well. The flavor blends most of it bittersweetly with a dry semi-sweet slightly bitter juicy aftertaste leading into the finish. On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a nice sessionability about it. Carbonation seems to hit appropriately, nice and low, and leads to a super smooth feel sliding over my tongue. Overall, what a damn nice APA with a stellar bittersweet aroma and flavor without the bitterness hitting harshly on my tongue. So smooth, would be a fantastic food beer!

On draft at local tavern

First thoughts: not much head, look is completely opaque yellow haze. Like a dark lemonade. Looks great.

Really tropical aroma; strong citrus scent.

Feel is light juice at the start and evolves to lightly bitter with sharp bubbles. These bubbles bring the tropical fresh hop flavor with them.

No malt whatsoever in the taste. Strong citrus with a bite. Great, light but super flavorful with fresh floral flavor and dank lighter hops. Mostly grapefruit finish.

Enjoyed this on draft at the brewery, poured into a shaker pint glass.
A - A bit of haze, dark straw in color, loose knit cap of whipped cotton.
S - Sweet malt base, tropical notes, papaya, orange.
T - Nice balance, house yeast points toward saison, thias is a bit of a flavor distraction, Malt base is 2 row and
delicate, hops add just enough bitterness.
M - Medium in body, well carbonated, soft on the palate.
O - A solid pale ale, nice aromatics and flavors.
Cheers

Beautiful looking beer. Looks like fresh squeezed pineapple juice. Pretty hoppy. Malt takes a back seat. Grassy, herbal, piney, maybe some pineapple. A little dank at the end. Strong APA.

got a growler filled of this from the bev in VT!!! pumped to have stumbled upon this accidentally, bigups the bev.

appearance is light golden with a slight haze and a thin finger of head.

smell is absolutely fucking great in my opinion, getting fresh cirturs and tropical fruits - orange peel, mango, pineapple, papaya.... a touch of grass and a bit of yeast.

taste cant quite live up to the smell in terms of flavor, but its drinkability makes up for that. very light and crisp, incredibly slight bitterness on the finish. overall really enjoyable beer that is highly drinkable and definitely worth trying.

Had this beer on tap at worthy kitchen in Woodstock Vermont.

Very pale yellow appearance. Not much head at all (not an awesome pour, but I'll take it).

Smells incredible. Like wild flowers in a field of zesty fruits.

Fruity upfront taste that finishes with a bitter aftertaste. Watery mouthfeel needs a bit more there.

Pretty good beer and I would order again. Great beach beer.
