I had this beer on-tap in a straight sided glass at the brewery in Spring. The server told me this was brewed using kveik yeast.

Appearance:  medium golden-orange hue with plenty of haze and a layer of frothy white foam leaving a good lace on the glass.

Smell:  citrusy/herbal hops with just enough sweetness to yield a nicely juicy character. I like it.

Taste:  a bit of citrus and a bit of bitter zest, along with a somewhat sweet malt.  The kveik funk/sharpness doesn’t 100% work for me here, but overall it’s not too bad.

Mouthfeel:  medium-light body but a good carbonation yielding a good creaminess.

Overall:  this seems like a well made beer, and I’m enjoying it enough, but like I said I’m not totally convinced kveik works in this application.
