From my brother: pours hazy yellow. Aroma is citrus and flowers. Thin, lame bitterness. Not great character.

Taster at brewpub. Cloudy, pale golden, thin white head. Light malty aroma, fruity edge. Taste gets weak from here, pale malts, bready. Not much hop character.

Can from the Shaw of PTC. Thanks bro! Its cloudy pale. Nice head that fades. Hints of fresh mild pine needles on the nose. Starts off a little medium IPA-ish on the palate. However, it never seems to quite get there. In the middle it still has a tad of that IPA feeling but it is a little smoother and more well behaved. Does not get too harsh. Decent co2 level. Not bad for a pale ale but I've had more civilized, more enjoyable examples of the style. Co2 level helps it to lean towards the refreshing side of the fence.

Cloudy yellow with a large white head. Citrus candy and a hint of sugar. Medium finish and body.
