M: Medium body, moderate carbonation, somewhat soft on the palate, but with a bit of hop burn.

Pours cloudy yellow color with a small off white head which faded average to quickly, leaving minimal lacing. Smells like tangerine, orange juice, ruby red grapefruit, lemon and lots of different citrus fruits. No malty aspects, just a citrus nasal assault. The taste is a lot more balanced with sweet malty notes, bread crust, caramel, graham cracker and some floral accents which show up after the lemon, grapefruit, tangerine and citrus flavors.
