Pours hazy, light orange. Foamy, medium white head that fades slowly.
Smells Citrus peel, orange, lemon and malt.
Tastes citrus peel, grapefruit and orange. Followed quickly by malt and a light funk that probably is from the malts. Finish is dry with citrus linger. Medium body and fizzy medium carbonation.

L: Kind of a muddy yellowish color with very small off white head.
S: Mosaic hops and some citrus smells up front. Not to much else going on.
T: Not a ton going on with this beer, I can taste the mosaic hops, but they are not over powering, the other flavors are hard to pick out. Nothing off with the taste, but not overly appealing either.
F: This is classified as an extra pale ale on the can and the feel is a little heavier than a pale ale, little lighter than an IPA with a smooth finish.
O: One of those beers I could take or leave, if it was offered I would drink it, but definitely would not search it out.
