Pint at Hamilton's Tavern over a month ago, reviewed from notes I took in my journal that same day, price was three or four dollars but I cannot seem to remember

A-Color was a murky golden yellow color with a small creamy head that disappeared pretty fast, not much retention, did not leave much lacing either

A-Smell was mostly floral hops, but there was also some citrus that was mostly lemon and grapefruit, bready malt, some other faint fruits, and grains

T-Taste was like other APAs but noticeably lighter, a little hoppy with not much malt but the biscuity bread noticed in the aroma, very chewy finish, had lots of yeast and barley too, got easier to drink as it warmed but flavor faded even more, well balanced for what it is, not a big light beer fan but this definitely more flavorful than others

M-Medium body with lots of carbonation, taste did not linger long, mouthfeel was crisp and a little dry

D-Could drink a lot of this stuff, but taste does not change much and could get tiresome, extremely light on the stomach, only four percent, goes down very easy

First beer I have tasted from this brewer, was in the mood for something light after the twelve percent barleywine I had, pretty bland but would make a nice session beer, no pun intended from the title, might drink again if there was nothing else really, worth trying
