Pours a dark apricot orange with a decent head that stayed frothy thoughout the tasting. The aroma was of strong citrus and grain. Mild hints of alchohol peaked through, earthy tones as well. Tasted strong hints of earthy/grilled corn. Citrus hops linger but rather dull in taste. A medium bodied pale that quenched the thirst but left alot to be desired, no flare to make this beer stand out amongst the huge selection of pale ale's out there, it is drinkable but really for the same price just by something better.

Appearance – Light, shiny orange in color with a decent head that left some nice pits on top of the liquid.

Smell – The citrus hops are sharp and make up most of the aroma. I can also pick up some grainy undertones.

Taste – The citrus hops step back at the taste and the grain rules the roost. There’s an orangy sweetness towards the finish.

Mouthfeel – I like the dry character of this light to medium-bodied Pale Ale. I thought it could have been a bit more complex, though.

Drinkability – This went down well enough, but don’t buy it thinking that the “dry-hopping” is going to give this a big flavor.
