Light and refreshing, our session ale is dry hopped with German Hüll Melon hops. This imparts bright notes of ripe fruit, cantaloupe, and honey dew melon for the ultimate thirst quenching beverage.

Bottom of the 16 oz. Can : "flag day everyday ". Canned on 6/14/17 opened on 6/29/17.

A slight haze to an otherwise bright straw golden color. A fine, clumpy white cap forms fast. Spreads out slow. Lacy leftovers.

A classic golden ale style aroma with a buttery malt but with a much bigger, fruitier hop smell. Sweet fruity hops over a light, buttery malt.

A very clean and crisp malt. Slightly honey sweet edge, then comes some bitter, dry earthy hops. Where did the fruity hops go? The hop flavor is now much more earthy and herbal with some sour grapes and dry wheat effects. Slightly tangy and sour overall , the malt stays light and clean. Not the most complex flavor's, pretty simple really but it is very intriguing.

Light body, crisp, practically juicy with a strange dry earthy finish.

Sour herbal notes and flat, bitter hops prevail. Bonus points for a unique approach, but I must admit, I find this one to be very weird. This is the sort of flavor I would imagine coming from a brew in perhaps 1775.

Deep straw color with the lightest of hazes. Small head but it lasts as a fine layer of bubbles on the surface. A cross between blankets and streaks on the glass for lace.

Pale malty smell with very little grainy nose. Reminds me of a Kölsch with just a touch of sweetness.

Crisp with lots of carbonation -- very spritzy. The body is only a bit below average. Relatively dry given the smell. The pale malt base lasts throughout the tasting. The little hop present at like a counterpoint to a melody -- most won't realize it is there but it provides great depth. (It lingers in the aftertaste like an echo.).
