3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
On tap at the Novare Res Bier Café in Portland, ME. Pours a hazed, dull gold colored body with a finger-width, dense and frothy, off-white head that dissipates slowly and leaves a nice lacing. Aroma is really nice with rye spiced florals and citruses as well as some light pines. Crisp and bready, grainy malts allowing the fruits to come out nicely. Flavor is solid as well. Bready pale malts up front with some graininess and lots of floral citrus hops. A nice rye spice comes along with a light pine before this finishes clean, smooth, and dry with a moderate bitterness and lots of floral fruits. Lengthy aftertaste following a very smooth and soft, medium body and a soft, moderate carbonation. Overall, a really nice pale ale. Lots of floral hops with some pines and plenty of citruses. The rye spice works nicely alongside the hops and everything is balanced with a bready pale malt backing. Very enjoyable.
