Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 6
Location: Draft at the brewery, 4/18/15
Aroma: This beer has a light hop aroma, with a bit of citrus, and some light pale malts.
Appearance: It pours a clear orange-amber color with a frothy beige head and some heavy lace.
Flavor: It has a lightly sweet citrus flavor, lightly bitter as well, mild hops, tastes fairly clean.
Palate: Has a soft carbonation, is fairly easy drinking on the mouth, finishes, with a light dryness.
Overall Impression: Another pale ale from Half Full that seems a little light on the hops. Might just be that their personal taste for hops and mine are not in alignment. Which is quite alright. To each their own.
