Aroma is fruit, a hint of spicy hops and mildly sweet/husky malts. The flavor is fruit, mildly sweet/husky malts and a slightly unexpected bitter hop/but smooth in the end finish.

Poured from a 16 ounce can into a Shaker pint glass, "canned on" date "07/25/24".

APPEARANCE: pours a hazy, light gold color with less than one-finger white head that quickly dissipated until there was a thin, broken layer of small bubbles remaining, slightly less than average carbonation, there is some lacing on the glass.

SMELL: faint sweet bread, not much else.

TASTE: initially sweet honey and bread then a mild hop bite on the finish.

PALATE: light body and carbonation.

OVERALL: this is an average beer, it's not bad but it's unremarkable, there are better beers to be had in this style so I would not seek this one out again.

16 oz can filled 5/21/24 into a Becker.
L: SRM 3.5 Pours a chill-hazed light golden caramel color with a 1/4" white head that recedes to thin froth, lush steady carbonation, light lacing.
S: Light grains, a hint of sweet bread, distant pear.
T: Lightly fruity, grains, a gentle bready note, tastes essentially follow aroma , light dough, a pear note, fairly simple.
F: Lightly brisk then soft and medium to med-light bodied feel with a medium-length mellow finish that is gently drying.
O: A tasty light Ale. Not over-thought or complex. Fruity & light with true flavor. I like this beer and will buy it again as long as it's fresh. It is very good in its style.
