Keg at Hopmonk, Sonoma, 28/04/14. Clear golden amber with a moderate light beige covering that retains. Nose is a little thin, light hop presence, caramel malt, citric rinds, bitter orange, straw. Taste comprises orange pith, caramel malt, peachy tang, tangerine, on the sweet side, light pine. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with light hop bitterness. Easy drinking IPA but too sweet for me and lacking bitterness/hop presence. Ok.

Pours gold. Not much haze, if any. Pours gold. Aroma is mildly bready with a nice grassiness. Tastes pretty much like that. It’s a very good lager.
