I got a can of this beer off the single shelf from Binnys in Montgomery,IL. The beer poured a hazy golden with floaties and a white head that is leaving some lace. The scent had malt and subtle fruit hop. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with ripe fruit presence. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall its a decent beer.

Appearance: Pours a pale, cloudy, lemony color that is effervescent with a strong, light head that lingers.
Aroma: Strong aromas of citrus, and tropical melon. Lots of mandarin orange, grapefruit, pineapple, tropical melon. A little hint of tart grape, or maybe grapefruit.
Taste: Flavors of lemon & orange/grapefruit citrus and pineapple. Pale honey malts really drive the show here. Lots of pale malts - sweet biscuit and honey. Minimally bitter. More sweet than bitter with a residual honey sweetness.
Feel: Medium bodied and well carbonated. Some residual honey, sticky sweetness left on the palate.

Overall: A really good citrus forward pale ale. Sweeter than I expected, but not in a bad way. Great body and carbonation to back the sweetness up. Drinkable and an easy drinking, slightly sweet and lighter summer pale ale.

Kinda liked this one, reminded me of a home brew. Smell/taste similar to the pale ales I used to make. More tropical and pleasing on the palate.

12oz, canned on 04/01/19. A frothy white head caps a semi-hazed yeklow-golden body. Zesty lemon and a bit of spicy/earthy pine for aroma but it's quite muted. Flavors are mild as well: lemongrass, pale malt, mild citrus, and pine, with some faint tropical fruit. Medium body, bitterness is modest, and overall flavor is quite refreshing and easy to drink. I might have to get another one of these if I see it again. I wasn't wowed by it, but I think it deserves another shot.
