3.54/5  rDev -0.8%
look: 3.75 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.5
16oz can. No dating information found.
Slightly cloudy, pale straw colored body, which still allows show of rising bubbles. Two fingers of white head upon pouring, which leads to a fluffy cap. Leaves some frothy remnants of lacing.
Aroma is lightly toasted malts and floral/herbal hops.
Taste is light on the palate. Has a good balance of lightly toasted malts and fruity/floral hops. Quick to recede in the aftertaste.
Solid medium mouth feel. Has a firm bite. Very good carbonation.
Easy drinking ale.
