This is their staple and it's a good one. Balance is good and well done. Lots of grapefruit flavor which is expected in a Florida brewery. Good enough that I went back the next night for another glass and a growler to bring home to RI. That says something.

Great fresh citrus and hops flavor and aroma. This beer has a firm level of alcohol, but it is not at all hot. It is quite easy to drink despite being pretty big and full bodied; almost as if it is both dry and full bodied. If you are ever in Vero Beach, FL, visit the brewery. It is a small, couple-owned place that is a lot of fun in a great beach community.

32 oz. growler poured into a snifter.
Appearance - Hazy deep orange body. Small white head.
Smell - Lots of grapefruit. Pale malt. Caramel malts.
Taste - Nice orange and grapefruit hop flavor up front. Lots of pale malt and fairly sweet. Grapefruit comes back with some moderate bitterness.
Mouthfeel - Medium body. A little too sweet for me.
Overall - Well made and pretty tasty.
