Sample @ Heartland Times Square. Served with a little lemon wedge, which was nice in that it broke up the monotony of the sampler platter. OK, is this important, or even different? No. But it’s the nicest thing I have to say about this beer and I gave it an extra Appearance point because of it. Otherwise, pretty boring even for the style. Good cloudy appearance. Standard citrusy aroma. Flavor is pretty non-existent. Definitely my least favorite of the sampler.
