355ml can poured into pint glass 2/9/12

A slight haze in a pale copper body, just a few slow little bubbles feeding a finger of fast falling foam (say that ten times fast) that leaves a few partial rings of lace

S citric hops and lime rind with a orange Kool-Aid thing going for it but its much better then it sounds, some sweet grains and caramels create some balance

T a little more malt then the nose and the hops are taking back stage, still quite nice but I preferred the nose

M has some body too it and the little bubbles work well for it, spicy grainy aftertaste

O I'd have another no problem, a nice Pale Ale from an unexpected source

I'm not sure why I didn't try this at the Brew Pub when I visited but I'm glad I grabbed a mixed 6er from them on my way out the door
