Citrus, lemon, orange and vanilla on the nose. Very light golden color with a small foam top. Light, citrus hops with other flavors of orange, vanilla and a faint caramel malt. Slight carbonation with a thin texture. Overall, a pleasant ale with nice flavors of orange, citrus and hops. I’d give this a B rating.

Tap @ PW. Light, clear, orange-gold pour with a short white head leaving heavy lace. Good head retention. Nose is light toast. Bread, light citrus, grass, sprouts. Crisp, medium-light body with moderate carbonation. Finish has some caramel, biscuit and some vegetal bitterness. Sessionable and quite tasty, but a bit more aroma would suit this APA to the ground.
