Shaker pint draft at The Peanut in Mission, Kansas. The pour is a hazed orange, with a foamy white head. Lace coats the glass. The aroma is orange peel, orange fruit, and a soft cream. The taste is bright citrus, orange fruit, sweet cream, and finishes with bitter peel. The palate is light to medium bodied with an unfiltered mouthfeel and a lingering citrus in the after taste. Well made, standard hazy.

A- Pale yellow color, clear liquid, white head.
A- Grains, light.
F- Grains, faint lemon, light.
T- Light body, average texture, average carbonation, crisp finish.
O- Big Grove impresses me when I always feel like they'll just be okay. This was one of the better lagers I've had in a long time. Crisp, balanced and easy to drink. Good stuff.
