    Poured slightly cloudy with a beautiful two inch, pristine white, tightly pack form topping of the beer. Retention was better than average becoming frothier as it receded. Lacing wasn't much to comment on.

    Aroma is tender but there is some yeast, lemon citrus, and a touch of pepper. There is a slight funk in the background.

    Taste has some wheat, yeast, and a similar touch of lemon. There is a lingering pepper to the after taste but light like the entire beer.

    Light on the mouth with a zesty, crisp carbonation that isn't over bearing. Doesn't really dry the palate as I thought it would, albeit slightly.

    This is a solid beer for how light it is. There is enough going on to appreciate what they put in such a "tiny" beer. I haven't had a ton of RR beers, but what I have are outstanding. The quest continues for more. Enjoy!
