Reviewed from notes.
The appearance had a light orange/yellow body with a half finger white foamy head that rises a bit and then falls leaving some nice slightly foamy yet clingy lacing gracing the sides of the glass, carbonation is seen rising at a moderate pace.
The smell had lemongrass and citrus are up front, lightly malted coming forth in the background but stays mainly subdued for the most part, and there’s a nice spicey/pepperiness coming through to tie everything together.
The taste had lemongrass/citrus leading to a tangy yet peppery almost spiciness, spicy aftertaste, dry finish.
On the palate, it sat at/about a light to medium, fairly sessionable. Carbonation seems good for an American Blonde Ale and good for me, becomes slightly crisp.
Overall, actually this is Bridgeport’s best beer that I would come back to again.

Clear slightly amber coloured body with a bright copper glow and a nice one centimetre just off-white head. Aroma of lemons, light malt, candy sugar and much more citrus - nice and strong. Light-bodied; Strong citrus flavour with a hint of sugars and a light pepper note as well. Aftertaste shows a bit of a spice kick and hints of the yeast with very little else - but a bright and airy finish. Overall, a decent beer with a nice smell and nothing bittering or offensive - just on the mild side, but nice in the heat of the summer! I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from La Bodega in Anchorage, Alaska on 04-October-2013 for US$1.50 sampled at home in Washington a few minutes before leaving back for the Bridge City - Portland, Oregon on 10-November-2013.

Bottle, 4% About 510 yen from Sugaya. A clear deep gold with a very mouthwatering lemon, yuzu & spice aroma. A great full bodied mouthfeel for a beer that goes down smooth. Sweet & fruity - citrus, lemongrass, yuzu. It is really bang on what the label claims. A well executed beer & as I a big yuzu fan really nice. Perfect on a hot sunny summer day...

On tap at the brewery. Pours a bright yellow/golden color with a medium white head. A big nose of lemons and zesty fruit. The flavor is basically similar dominated by tart and sweet lemons and oranges. Very clean and refreshing, Good.

12 oz bottle into English pint. Pours a clear gold with a medium-white collapsing head; leaves a long-retaining blanket. Aroma is grainy, cotton candy, lemon. Taste is lightly sweet and dry, grainy with a hint of lemon. Carbonation is a little low for the style, body is light. Pretty boring, but would make a nice quaffer.
