En fût. Verre de 12 oz dégusté directement à la brasserie. Arôme: Odeur de malt et d’agrumes. Apparence: La couleur est blonde légèrement voilée. Présence d’un mince col mousseux et d’une fine dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Goût d’houblons et de céréales. Courte durée de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps est moyen avec une texture huileuse. Moyenne effervescence en bouche. Présence d’houblon en arrière goût. (Rating #1083)

On tap at Alchemist. Great citrusy aroma with fresh hoppy profile. Clean and light, refreshing aroma! Very lemony. Pale yellow clear with light haze. Thin white lacing head. Medium light body with mild carbonation. Mild golden ale (found out later is pale lager). Good malt graininess with citrusy hop bite. Clean dry bitter finish and after. A nice quencher and great session.

Thin, watery, commercial tasting. A complexity of taste is needed for this brew. They’re using a minimum of hops and malt and trying to get away with it. It’s a little too light and the finish is just crisp, with nothing to make it great.
