12oz bottle from a six pack. Poured into a Widmer tulip glass...

A: Pale gold, with a white head of foam; no lace, although there is some light retention.

S: Citrus peel; light bread crust notes.

T: Orange citrus flavor; light biscuit / slightly bready taste; pretty simple and straightforward - but nice for a 4.3% brew.

M: Light-medium body; moderate carbonation; what you'd expect.

O: A nice citra summer brew; not something I'd probably drink a lot of, even with the low abv; could stand to be a touch drier.

Nice golden blonde appearance, solid head makes for nice retention and lace. Aroma was delicious, nothing getting in the way of the citra hop here. Pungent especially for a summer brew.

The hop flavor is sturdy and the bitterness is low, super light malt base, truly a summer brew with taste. Awesome session beer they really should bring back. Or is it still around and I haven't seen it for a few years? Light toast and citra hops, sounds like summer for me.

Meh. Nothing special and wasn't memorable at all.
