Pours golden clear with nice white cap on draught from Macleod into small pint glass. Notes of floral with and hoppy ale. Really good pale!

Poured somewhat aggressively from a 16 oz. can. Color is gold. Creamy, frothy white head and considerable lacing.
Bright citrusy/ floral and even some earthy aromas blended interestingly with yeasty fresh bread dough.
Taste is a slightly mellower citrus with what the can perfectly describes as a "bready, malty pillow". A moderate bitterness follows.
Feel is medium bodied. Medium carbonation.
Overall - a Pale Ale that captures three elements fairly nicely - hops malt and yeast. First Pale Ale where I could actually smell the yeast - and it really added something special (but positive) to this beer. I suggest pouring this aggressively into a proper glass. Drinking it from the can is still great, but pouring this beer, releases more aroma than I would have expected.
