The beer is a bright pale yellow gold. Looks quite clear. Solid enough white head. The aroma is chock full of sweet hop flavor. Very juicy. Peach, grape, kiwi, mango, pineapple, tangerine, melon. Mild simple malt sweetness in the background. Particularly big on grape juice. Sweet cherries. The taste is low on bitterness, big on hop flavor. It’s not sweet, just hoppy without accompanying bitterness. Little malt character. Big fruity, juicy hop notes. Very easy to drink. Smooth with tasty hop oiliness.
