Poured from a 12 oz bottle into a pint glass- pours a hazy amber/orange color with about a finger of head, GREAT retention, some nice rings of lacing. Beautiful looking ale.

Smell is interesting- pretty lemon-y. A little pale malt, not a particularly strong scent. Pleasant, but could be fuller.

Taste is also interesting- like a British bitter but more citrus-y. Lemon and pale malt mix at first, follower by some caramel, which then gives way to the lemon and slight bitterness.

Mouthfeel is excellent- medium light body, moderate soft carbonation. This ones a keeper folks. As they say, great session beer. Too bad I can't get it regularly.

On tap at The Rocking Horse in Logan Square. Appearance Pale golden with a fingers worth of off white head that dissipates quickly. Nose Slight grassy notes with floral teases. Hops present but not hugely noticeable. Taste quite mild with a touch of hop and dry finish. Delivers exactly what's advertised here very mild with a hop punch and surprisingly floral. More like fresh hop water following the lead of concur water with a hint of bitter elderflower. Medium bodied with a dry finish which makes new any more and more. Overall, a great session and first beer at dinner. I am not sure if all of the dipa and iipas I have had are taking a till on my palate but I truly am enjoying these session pales. Cheers.

A session type beer from Three Floyds!

Pours out a nice darker orange with 2 fingers of a fluffy, white head.

The aroma has some grassy, slightly floral, slightly citrus hop notes along with a touch of caramel and bready malt notes.

The taste is mostly hop driven with the grassy hop notes along with some floral notes a small touch of citrus and some caramel sweetness in the middle to balance it all out. There is a bit of bready malt note in the back end too.

The body is very light, almost thin and the mouthfeel is slightly creamy.

This is a very easy to drink, crisp, clean and refreshing beer. It's not overly complex, but you could put down quite a few of these during the summer. Nothing out of the ordinary, but does what it wants to do quite well.
