Says brewed in California on this listing but this can actually brewed by Brew York, York for Beer52. Foamy white head on well carbonated unclear golden coloured body. Sweet fruity aroma. Medium bodied, foamy with a dry back. Malt, grain, nectarine, tobacco & citrussy tastes with a long tangy finish. Enjoyable.

Poured from a 16 oz can. Aroma is hop forward with lots of grapefruit, tropical citrus and lighter notes of passion fruit and hints of stone fruit. Hints of alcohol notes. Pours a hazy, pale, yellow-gold color with a medium large, fairly thick, fluffy, white head that recedes slowly to a small film that lingers. Light acing and faint legs. Flavor is somewhat sweet with light cracker malt notes. Moderate bitterness and hints of alcohol. Light hop notes of tropical citrus, orange and passion fruit. Hints of grapefruit and stone fruit. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid pale ale. I'd prefer a bit more of a hop character, especially in the aroma but it's easy drinking.
