650ml bottle - an appropriate enough offering right now, as I am definitely exhibiting the titular behavior.
This beer pours a mostly clear, pale golden yellow colour, with two fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and bubbly dirty white head, which leaves some decent defrosting back windshield pattern lace around the glass as it evenly subsides.
It smells of bready and meaty caramel malt, some mixed domestic citrus rind, an estery yeastiness, and some plain leafy, weedy, and musky floral green hops. The taste is grainy and gritty pale malt, somewhat phenolic yeasty notes, some weird peppery spicy essences, stale buttered bread, muted orange and lemon citrus peel, and more understated earthy, musty, and dead floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is average in its palate-coating frothiness, the body an adequate medium weight, and not all that smooth, as that salted butter thing is really starting to bug the hell out of me. It finishes trending dry, the whole thing still doing little to nothing for me.
Overall - yeah, these guys typically hit it out of the proverbial park, but eventually there's a waiting bed that must be shat upon. Yup, don't know what the fuck this is, and 'summer pale ale' initially means nothing to me, but the result here is one hot mess indeed. Drawing board (or quality control), get ready for incoming.

---------------------------
The brewery reached out to me (cool, that) and indicated that the batch I tried was indeed infected, and sent a replacement bottle. I'm not going to do another full review, but I can say that it is quite malty, a tad fruity, and generally easy-drinking, just as a good little Summer ale should be (actual rating, oh, let's say 3.75). Fin.
