Color somewhere between Mountain Dew and vegetable broth. Low density head of space-white with a yellow-green tinge. Horned owls and kissing fish lacing die-cuts to crowns bejeweled by bubbles. Tropical pudding of lime and pineapple-tangerine, banana and lemon sugar. Coconut and mango afterthoughts. Power punch palate entry. Eucalyptus wood intimations, toasty sesame with lemon zest, pith and seed. Toasted coconut says ‘hello’, and ‘remember me?’salinity infuses the betel nut, nutmeg and allspice whispers, and the whole is well-integrated as Founder’s is fond. I lean toward impeccable, but I go with impressive.

Golden Tourmaline body with a frosty top of fresh mountain pow. Freckled blob monster in undulating dissolution lacing. Lemon puddings and lime leaves with a single granule of frozen white pepper whose presence informs the palate initially before your maw is awash in citrus zested pretzel bread with signature salinity. Softness and sweetness are not the centerpiece, but a nod to beer is here and I appreciate this element most of all.
