A pleasant enough brew, nothing really stood out for me, even though Citra is among my favorite hops. A soft grain base supported the softly muted hops. The beer was smooth and even, and very easily drinkable. Worth trying if you see it.

Served On-Tap in a stemmed 16oz goblet
A — Pours a light pale lemony orange, almost with a tinge of green to it. There is a large billowy white head that sits atop the beer, looks almost meringue like. There is some moderate lacing left behind with each sip, it tries to cling to the inside of the glass, but the overall glass shape isn't highly conducive to lacing. That's alright though, this is still a nice looking beer and it is presented well.
S — Smell is complex, fruity, juicy, bright, refreshing. I get notes of fresh lemon custard, light doughy pie crust, tart lime zest. Little bit of a fresh squeezed orange juice note as well. Some light melon components come through, cantaloupe, honeydew. This is really fresh, bright, vibrant. No real bitterness or astringency here.
T — Taste is much like the nose, light melon notes initially, developing into a lemon custard like tart sweetness. I get some lime zest, some tropical fruit tones, mildly sweet. Super refreshing, bright, no real assertive bitterness, everything is balanced and harmonious. Must use loads of finishing hops, there is no harsh bitterness that is sometimes found in pales.
M — Light-Medium bodied, this is creamy and still effervescent. Really smooth and enjoyable.
O — Fantastic overall, really fresh, vibrant, bright, harmonious pale. I'll have to go back for more.
