Pale Ale. A smooth and crisp medium body with an aroma that
resembles grapefruit. The hoppiness hits you at first sip and
beams right on through to the finish.

tap at the brewpub 5/14/13 - The bartender indicated that this beer was originally Moon Beam IPA #2 and was chosen from others in the series to become a more regular beer. It pours hazy copper colored and the aroma is dominated by grapefruit. It’s heavy on the hops, on the high end for single IPAs when it comes to bitterness. It’s not a compex beer, but the hops are crisp, the body medium, and the finish bitter in a good way. Solid.
