Something had to be wrong with this. Pours a clear golden yellow with a big fizzy white head. Aroma is astringent, grain malt bed. Taste is again astringent and tarte with a small hop presence and grain backing. The tartness and astringent taste makes it pretty much undrinkable. I don’t believe that this was intentional. I’d like to try another sample.

UDBeernut (2248) - Between JAX and SGJ, Florida, USA - JAN 22, 2013
Pint at the shit motel bar. Pours golden amber with minimal head. Nose or citrus and light biscuit. The taste has mild bitterness, throw a dash of citrus. Body is small and thin. Ride the whale indeed.

Draught at the brewery. Pours gold with a thin white head. Smells and tastes lightly hoppy and earthy with some spicy elements and a toasty finish.

On tap at brewery. Tasted several of the offerings here and enjoyed them all but cannot remember any specifics. It’s always good to get fresh beer. Hopefully I can get myself back there to gather better rating info.

kramer (5441) - Sunbury, Pennsylvania, USA - FEB 27, 2008
22 oz bottle, via BA ppoitras. Pours a clear dark gold body with a nice foamy one finger off white head that settled to a thin film. The nose is light bready and toasted malt with a very minimal floral hop nose. Light cooked veggies as it warmed up a bit. The flavor is of crusty bready malt, some light caramel, and a lightly bitter hoppiness. A little background vegetal note throughout, but becomes more pronounced as it warms further. Kind of dull tasting really. Mouthfeel is light bodied with a watery texture and fizzy prickly carbonation. Overall, not a particularly inspiring APA, it needs to have the hops kicked up a bit and have that vegetal streak cleaned up.

on tap-pours a disappearing white head and copper color. Aroma is mild hops, some medium malt. Taste is somewhat bitter/spicy hops, some medium malt-caramel. OK carbonation. 3.7 There was an issue with some of the bottled beer, but won’t adjust the rating at this point.
