On Tap at Gigantic's Robot Room taproom.Clear medium orange pour with a lasting tin skin of bubbles. Mild light carmel malts, subtle tropical fruit hop character, very light on the bittering. Though not a big beer, seeemd a bit more malty than hoppy.

Bottle from Total Wine in Folsom, CA. Pours lightly translucent gold with a large foamy white head. Aroma of roasty malt and citrus. Med body. Smooth. Flavor has roasty malt in light amount, passion fruit and citrus that isn't sharpish. Fairly towards dry. Moderately bitter. Not excessively complex, but very pleasing and tasty.
