Aroma is big citrus/fruit and mild tropical fruit/hint of sugar. The flavor is citrus/fruit, malts, tropical fruit and a mix of lager smoothness and hops in the finish.

On-tap 11/25/2016 at Pour Farm Tavern in New Bedford, MA, served in a US tumbler pint glass.
A: The beer is a light gold color, with a short off-white head that fades slowly and leaves a thick lace on the glass.
S: The aroma contains floral hops, fruity citrus, caramelized malts and lager yeast.
T: The taste starts out sweet with flavors of citrus and caramel. Then a strong but not over-powering hops bitterness comes in. The malt character is hearty but not too heavy and brings a good balance. The after-taste is slightly hoppy and slightly sweet.
M: Crisp and smooth, medium body, medium carbonation, finish is slightly sticky.
O: Tasty, goes down easily, not too filling, decent kick, good representation of style, this is a solid hoppy lager to drink for a while.

Light but hoppy. A bit of a session ale style.

From a 12oz can.
Opaque, pale gold with a thick, soapy, white head that leaves lots of lacing. Has a tropical look about it.
Nose is abundant floral, orange, melon and passion fruit with a piney backbone to give it balance.
Resinous hops come to the fore when tasting. Followed by lemon and honeysuckle.
Medium to light body with a gentle, spicy burn and a long, crisp, dry finish. Moderate carbonation.
I like this very much. Plenty of west coast hops balanced by pilsner malts. The oily, spicy hops are complemented by the clean malt profile without being subdued. It provides above-average drinkability in a hop-forward beer.
