A- This beer has a light warm brown body that is a bit translucent and a thin light tan head and a gentle carbonation.

S- The smell of light pale malt has a fresh grain note that gives it some depth. There is a faint green hop with hints of citrus note that comes through when it warms but it is still soft.

T- The dry fresh pale malt taste has a note of honey malt that gives it some good depth. The fresh hop flavors of grapefruit have an iced tea note to them, which is refreshing. The finish is a good hop flavor that is note to bitter but is still bold.

M- The medium-light mouthfeel of the beer has a light fizz in the finish that helps boost the hop flavor.

D- This is a great session beer with good fresh malt flavors and some nice hop characters balancing out the flavor.
