  • Pours clear but had some small floaties with an inch of frothy, tightly packed, white foam. Retention is above average

    Aroma is light but has a nice citrus and floral hop mix that is nicely packed in front of sweet caramel malt.

    Taste follows the nose. Sweet with floral hops up front. A resinous and citrus hop comes in the middle through the finish. There is quick and large blast of bitterness in the after taste but it doesn't last long.

    Lightly carbonated with a medium, viscous body that almost seemed a bit juicy but did dry after a few seconds.

    More hops than I expected from this beer but definitely appreciated, well balanced, and a nice profile. Easy to have several at a time. Enjoy!
