look: 2.5 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3 | overall: 4

Poured into nonic glass a very pale straw color, Served it at probably warmer than recommended temp for a beer of this style. Obtained a large white head, heavy carbonation. Some lacing, but I have tried drinking it much colder and lacing very slight.

Aroma is of Cascade/Cluster hops, floral, citrusy, pleasant. Some slight malt/corn adjunt aroma.

Taste: Floral, citrusy hops dominate, very nice. This mitigates some of the adjunct flavor. Can detect some slight fruitiness, perhaps due to the warmer fermentation temp.(not top fermented so I hear )

Mouthfeel: Very much like a macro lager. Thin but smooth due to corn grits adjunct.

Drinkability: Very drinkable and refreshing. I foresee tending the brats on the grille with friends and enjoying one after another from the can. Sometimes ya just gotta have a beer like this!

Serving type: can

2.79/5  rDev -5.4%
look: 3 | smell: 2.75 | taste: 2.75 | feel: 3 | overall: 2.75

A - see through, pale, gold with a thin, fizzy, white head that fades in an instant

S - musty, faint grass, faint citrus

T - almost no flavor on the front end, but then there is a very bitter finish; there are some hints of citrus throughout if you look hard enough

M - medium bodied, very crisp, over carbonated

Well, this certainly isn't the best pale ale out there. It could definitely use a boost of flavor. It's also over carbonated which make it lighter than it should be. Overall, I'm not disappointed that I tried this, but I won't be buying it again.

Serving type: bottle
