A light and refreshing session ale. Candied Mango and floral aromas up front give way to a sweet malt and citrus zest flavor with just a hint of bitterness to keep you coming back for another sip.
MALT: 2-row Barley, Wheat
HOPS: Citra, Centennial & Amarillo

From the pint can, it pours a hazy light amber color with a nice thick white head that slowly diminishes and leaves some lacing. The nose gets a nice citrusy scent. The mouth gets a slightly citrusy bite, followed by a light citrusy malt flavor. Light enough to be a bit watery, but overall pleasant and easy to drink.

Picked-up a four-pack of cans at Curtis in Cohasset for about fourteen dollars. My 3rd brew reviewed from these guys. Mediocre LAB.

The nose is almost citrusy or floral. Pale golden color and very slightly hazy (not very). The head dissipates fairly quickly leaving maybe an 1/8" on top. There's something in the flavor that I am not knowledgeable enough to identify. Maybe it is an almost fruity-yeasty flavor, maybe it is a hop variety. I'll come back and edit this review after I figure it out. What I can say with confidence that this is a good beer to have cold on a hot day, as I am doing at the moment. Very refreshing. A little bit of an off-dry slightly hoppy finish, but mild. This is an easy drinking beer that I will buy again.

Pours hazy, gold in color with minimal head. Taste is very floral hops, hibiscus, and candied mango. Super light bodied, sweet, moderate carbonation. Amazing flavor for the strength. Unique and super floral. Like drinking a hoppy boquet. I would come back for this.
