Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 8 | Flavor - 8 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 8

Can (4/30/24) pour from The Beer Store, Salem. Cloudy, milky yellow with light sparkle, thin head with fair retention and no lacing. Aroma is strong tropical fruit and candied citrus. Taste follows aroma along with bready background malt. Smooth, fairly thick texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. One of the better reflections of Riwaka I've had in a while. Especially good strength of aroma/flavor for a pale ale.
