Terrior de Tettnangs, on tap at Victory. I'm not sure of this history behind this one other than it's ultra fresh and uses only Tettnag hops. My best bet is to compare this to the others without giving a stand alone review. Way less pronounced hop expression than the Day 4 and Day 1, probably less than the other two as well. More Czech pils in style, as the finish is very short, crisp. I won't go so far as to call this "snappy" as the profile just isn't there. Thin and a touch empty in comparison. Malt body is not quite as integrated into the hops, there is a touch of grain sweetness throughout. Still a good beer, but drinking in between the Day 4 and Day 1 brought out the deficiencies of this.

Serving type: on-tap

lightest gold color, wispy white head, effervescence between miss 1 and 4. Soft flavor, light grain and vitamin c, Body more full than strass, very barky grain, earthy, massive hay, grass, dough and lightly floral resin emerge in finish, moderately dry but considerably juicy, oil still lingering on tongue, bit more vitamin c than desired.
