Nice creamy thicker head, good retention and lacing, mostly clear slight hazed honey pale blond colour

Nose mild doughy base malt, little toasted and like raw grist, mild Cascadian hops, touch spicy grassy, but more fruity citrus, mild grapefruit

Taste nice hops out front, grapefruit, citrus, fruity, little spicy and a touch earthy, note interesting fruits too, mild soft malt, touch doughy wheat, fair bitterness, dry clean finish more bitterness lingering

Mouth is med softer bodied, medium carb, touch creamy

Overall not bad, pretty well done but a "safe" beer and doesn't really stand out, wish the hops popped a bit more, however it's a solid APA that does the style well
