look: 4.5 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 3

A~ looks great, light brown color, big foamy head.

S~ Smell is very subtle, but good nonetheless. Smells of citrisy malts.

T~ Tastes good but nothing special. Starts like a regular pale ale, then adds some citrisy flavor, and finishes with some hop bitterness.

M~ slight carbonation, not too heavy goes down easy.

D~ OK, the six pack will take me a few hours to drink.

Serving type: bottle

Served on-tap at Harpoon Brewery Beer Hall in Boston, MA

A: Pours a hazy golden amber in color with moderate amounts of gentle visible carbonation and some copper + orange highlights. The beer has a two finger tall foamy light beige head that slowly reduces to a medium thick cap in the center of the beer along with some thin film covering the majority of the remainder of the surface of the beer and a thick ring at the edges of the glass. Moderate amounts of lacing are observed.

S: Moderate aromas of pale and caramel malts, honey, and floral hops. Light hints of grassy hops as well.

T: Upfront there are moderate flavors of pale and caramel malts which lend just a hint of sweetness along with the honey. Then there are moderate to strong (and slightly aggressive) flavors of floral and grassy hops which impart a light to moderate amount of lingering bitterness.

M: Just shy of medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Slight hints of dryness in the finish.

O: I found this one to be enjoyable but just slightly lacking in some way...the hop flavors almost tasted like they were slightly stale. I found the beer to be refreshing and it would likely go down very easily on a hot summer afternoon.

Serving type: on-tap
