Appearance: slightly cloudy and a pale straw color. Little to no head.

Smell: bright fruit aromas with floral almost rose-like undertones.

Taste: Highly carbonated with a lot of "bite". It has an acidic apple taste and seems like the world's greatest cider even though its beer. There were some subdued tastes of clove and banana.

Overall: The acidity and citrus notes are at the forefront with this beer, and the high level of carbonation keeps the sweetness from lingering. It reminded me a lot of what I wish hard cider would taste like. I felt it was highly pallette cleansing with a minorly sour after taste that made me pucker ever so lightly.

Serving type: on-tap

Hazy peach-golden colour, 1.5 fingers of white head that settles and rests on top of the beer, a bit of lace here as well. Smell has some wheaty, earthy scents, tart lemmon and lightly acidic, a little yeasty. Taste is refreshing with tart lemmon and malt, moderate sourness, some hay like flavours as well. Medium carbonation and body, nice feel. This was quite nice and something I could easily drink again, solid stuff.

On tap at Session 2012. Into a tulip.

Unfiltered straw yellow, with good lacing and retention. Nose is lactic, some wheat, light tartness and a shade of lemon. Taster features more tart lemon and wheat ntoes, less lactic than the nose but still moderately acidic. Light mouthfeel, grainy finish. Not that tart, but satisfying enough. Lower carbonation than I dig, but still a decent Berliner.
