From what I gathered this is a wet hopped version of their Harbor Pale Ale.

Pours a clear golden color with a short white head that had some moderate sized bubbles. Settles into a light cap.

The aroma is of light grapefruit and grass, nothing mind blowing. I expected more of a fresh hop aroma but it really isn't strong enough. Some sweet notes from the bready malt.

The taste is more bold. A sizable grapefruit rind presence and a fairly strong grassy bitterness. There is a short lived resin note. Not a very bright hop flavor which is what I would have expected from a wet hopped ale. This beer is more earthy and bitter. The malt provides a sweet balance but doesn't add too much to the flavor.

Moderate feel is prickly carbonation. Good balance on the palate; finishes with a dry bitterness. Drinks well.

A bit disappointed in this beer as I expected more of a fresh hop flavor. It seems to be more hop bitter than hop flavorful.
