Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6.5

A little pine and citrus but mostly a malt heavy beer. Much more of an English pale ale than a West Coaster like Ice Cube. Faint bitterness in finish. Tap at brewery.

Heavy on the citrus compared to most hefes. Pours golden with good head and lacing. A little sour for your average like it rained all summer in Dublin.
