Courtesy hopscotch. Pours a crystal clear straw gold color, with a small white head. Smells of lager yeast, some grain, and mild citrus fruits and hops. The flavor is a bit grainy, wit the very mild hops making a small appearance. Extrememely simple and easy drinking. Was pretty much used asa palate cleanser at a tasting. Nothing offensive, but about as boring as it gets without being bad.

Very bland, slightly sour and yeasty APA. No significant hop profile and a touch of bitterness. The florals are present, but in such a small amount, it takes work to really notice them. Pours a foamy yellowish gold with white head.

Growler, Clear orange color with a nice white head. Light flowery hop aroma with malt comming second. Great malt flavor up front folowed by a nice hop bite, then a balanced malt and hop finish. Well balanced pale ale. Very drinkable.

Draught Orange beer with small white head. Flowery nose, hops abundant. Dry, straightforward hoppiness. No explosion but just a good punch. Tangering peel. Slightly burning MF, very slight tartness. A good, if inadventurous APA.

Bottle... Hazy golden ale with a small, creamy, white head. Decent, small, swirling retention. Earthy, malty aroma. Medium-bodied and lightly creamy with lively carbonation. Grainy, citrusy flavor. Grapefruit pith, toffee and earthy tannins. Finishes crisp, moderately bitter, and then dry.
