Bottle from GBBF 2018 and drunk at home. Clear amber colour lasting white head. Understated pale ale. Nothing wrong with it. Some orange and tangerine flavours in mouth. Some bitterness on the finish. OK carbonation. Easy drinking apa.

12 oz. purchased at El Barrio Tequila bar, Holland, PA. Almost clear golden appearance. Aroma shows me mild floral and grapefruit hints. Flavor is about average for the style; white bread, subtle floral with a weak grapefruit pith finish. Bitterness is low with a crisp texture. Almost to malty. Certainly drinkable without any issues.
