Pours hazy bronze-gold with a two finger head and healthy carbonation. Aroma is malt with a hint of lemon. Taste is hoppy, light, fizzy and grain. Citrus are present in the taste, with lemon and orange dominant in my mind. A quick brew solidly within the pale ale camp.

On tap at the brewhouse. Pours a dark golden with a hint of red and a slightly off-white head.
Aroma is loaded withe citrus, grapefruit and orange with a touch of breadiness.
Taste follows, lots of grapefruit and orange, a bit of pith and a balancing sweetness.
Mouthfeel is medium and smooooth.
Very good pale ale.

I had this poured at the Fitgers bar. It's a golden color, slightly red. I immediately tasted grapefruit and confirmed through the bartender that it is in fact grapefruit. Slightly happier than I like, but a great beer!

I wanted to like this but the day i was there this came across as a little water, hoppy and sour. Its hop to malt ratio is somewhere between an APA and an IPA.
