Brewer's notes:
As fall hits and summer fades we throw out one last toast to summer. This beer is about summer today and yesterday, a mindset, an ease...Tasty Waves is the summer session pale that glides in and around your long days soaked in sunshine. It's a 5% cruiser we're putting into 22's and growlers. Put down your ambition and ride these tasty waves while it's hot.

2016-09-28 in Napperville, IL at the Pour House on tap.
Hazy gold with a 2-finger head. Smell is citrus, dank and pine. Nicely bitter finish. More dank than I like in a Pale Ale but tasty nevertheless. Good feel. I like it but would rather have their Daisy Cutter.

Nice, but thin mouthfeel. Grassy nose
