Part of the sampler flight at the brewpub on a quiet Saturday afternoon. Poured a slightly hazy orange-amber color with a small off-white head. Aroma was grain notes, caramel characters, toffee perhaps, plenty of tropical citrus character to it. Flavor was light malts, citrus character, and rye spice. Pretty refreshing for that ABV.
