A: The beer is hazy dark yellow in color and has a light amount of visible carbonation. It poured with a short white head.
S: Light aromas of citrusy hops are present in the nose.
T: The taste follows the smell and has muted flavors of citrusy hops along with a light amount of bitterness.
M: It feels medium-bodied on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation. Faint bits of crispness are noticeable.
O: This APA seems like the hops might have weakened on the trip across the Atlantic Ocean, but it the muted hop flavors are akin to an English IPA compared to an American IPA.

Tried on-tap at Ma Che Siete Venuti A Fà in Rome. They listed the ABV as 5.7%.
Pours a light, faint golden hue with fairly heavy haze. Body is very lightweight. Head forms a thick, frothy and persistent crest of white that leaves a frothy ring of lace at the top of the glass and then nothing more. Carbonation is very fine. Looks pretty decent.
Lovely fresh and sweet initially on the nose. Big fresh fruity characters: mango, peach and sweet citrus: my guess would be a fair bit of Galaxy in it. It's very fragrant in any case and makes a powerful entry.
Light start on the palate, fairly clean with just a hint of biting vegetative hops around the edges. The sweet fruit characters come in through the middle, fragrant, but blunted a little. There's also a weird milky character to it as well: not lactic infection, but weirdly perhaps lactose. Back is clean but rather empty. Sparkle of carbonation and a faint bitterness on the finish. It's quite refreshing. Feel is clean and light.
Overall, though, it's very smooth, easy to drink and really nice. It's got a great nose and brings a lot of character to the table for a pretty easy beer—too big to be sessionable probably, but still a nice start to a session.

Pours a standard lite orange/blonde hue with a fluffy white head.
nose; floral with a touch of citrus.
taste; floral; lite fruitiness; finishes with a grassy and earthy bitterness lingering on the palate for some time.
overall; simple and solid enough rendition of the style.
