Pours clear, deep gold. The aroma is of caramel malt and citrusy hops. Flavor is moderately bitter with a good malt balance. It's medium bodied and overall a solid brew.

Pours clear gold. It smells of grainy malt. The flavor is sweet with grainy, bready malt and very mild hops bitterness. Light bodied. Easy drinking. I guess it's a little creamy. Okay.

tap at the brewpub in Carmel - Hazy pink pour with minimal head. It smells really tart and fruity. The flavor is of tart raspberry, still quite tart even with the syrup, with light malty sweetness. This is a tasty, light bodied brew.
