Bottle 65 cl. Courtesy of yespr. Credited to the Arlington location. Pours a clear golden with a lacing white head. Rather flowery hop aroma. Medium body, sweet clean pale malts with a flowery hop bill. Subdued bitterness. Reminds me more of a southern German style lager actually. 200912

Draft as "Arlington Blue Line Pale Ale." Poured a pretty clear yellowish-orange color with a small white head. Aroma was hoppy, pines, grapefruit. Flavor was piney hops, good balance of malts. Not bad at all.
