Light haze on this pale god beer. Little white head. Very light palate with equally light carbonation. Mild tangy hop, orange and tangerine with some dried fruits. Semi dry finish. Okay but lacks any substance.

On cask at Craft Beer Co. pale clear gold lasting cream head. Hoppy golden ale with some ascetic notes. Just on border of being too hop acid harsh. Just a touch too ascetic to be pleasant. Good lemon though
