Spot on to style. This is how to use hops when not trying to make a big beer or overpower the drinker. Decnt roasted malt notes abound. Tinny finish lowers the rating.

750 ml bottle - purchased at New Beer Dist. in NYC; bright orange and clear with thin, white head; fruity and malty aromas; no carbonation; sweet, almost syrupy texture; a very nice pale ale with lots of flavor and little of the over powering and often over used hops

(Bottle). Tangy hops aroma. Pours hazy bright orange with a smallish white head. Mild citrusy somewhat bitter flavor with a nice dry astringent finish. Refreshing.

Bottle. Pours a light orange with little head. Bready, metallic aroma. Flavor is soapy and bready, with a bit of hops. Very disappointing.
