Subtle earthy, floral aroma with hints of grassy hops and pale malt along with some light fruit notes. Smelly slightly creamy with hints of apple and faint alcohol.
Medium bodied with a nice crisp floral hop bite up front that is countered by sweet pale malt, subtle alcohol and light fruit notes. Slightly earthy and grassy and faintly dry but not very bitter. Well balanced with pale pilsner malt and a crisp light apple flavor. Slightly dry with a bit of alcohol in the finish. Well balanced and really easy to drink especially in this humid weather.
