Hazy, pale golden color; big white head. Pleasant aroma of malt and citrus. Same notes in taste; gentle touch of hops. Moderate bitterness, easy to drink.

From BeerAdvocate Magazine #89 (June 2014):
Bitter, Light, Trendy
Without a doubt this substyle of the IPA is one of THE trends of 2014. Farmer’s Tan runs well within the same vein being light bodied with an overly aggressive hoppiness for its size. Any easy hop fix without paying the toll of being a bigger beer though these beers tend to be less interesting, sort of a one sided brew.
