The aroma is the high point of this beer. It is quite pale, does have a foamy white head, laces and retains. This is a dryish, clear, thin malt type golden ale with moderate carbonation. The taste is tart lemony slightly bitter hop. They use Goldings hops and it does have a slightly corianderish smell to it. The beer is a bit thin, watery, not all that substantial, but it's not a bad offering by any means.

Enjoyed on-tap. Presented in an imperial pint glass.
Thick 3/4" bright white head that lasts and lasts above the totally clear golden brew. Aroma is pale grains balanced by light hoppiness. Taste follows the nose, with the balance excellent, and the combination lingering after the swallow. Mouthfeel is soft and extra smooth, and this one has an easy drinkability.

On-tap at Brockton location.
Golden colour with frothy head that disapates too quickly, leaving very little lacing.
The smell is faint because the beer was too cold, but a light grassy hop bouquet was present.
The taste at first is malty but hops comes around. The aftertaste is a bit medicinal and oily. Not sure of the ABV, but my friend had three and he was drunk.
They advertise in their menu, that this ale has all the hop taste with out the bitter after-taste. Not sure who they're pandering to there with that one, but it is sure not me, or any other self-respecting hophead.
But at the end of the night, it is still a nice one to drink with friends, but it could be worlds better.

Clear light gold, served with no head, leaves no lacing, ice cold. Smell is apple pear cider (in a good way) and corn. Grassy and vegetal. Flavor is rather vegetal hoppage aboard a biscuity body. A little medicinal. Medium feel, slick but with a carbonation bite. Could be much much better, but could be much worse.
