This beer poured with a thin, off white head. Beer color is a cloudy, medium yellow with a fair amount of fine sediment floating in the glass. The aroma is tangy, yeasty and spicy - as you would expect from this style. The taste is milder than I expected, based on the aroma. Yeast, spice, citrus. Although it is not really fruity, I think the fruit mellowed out some of the yeastiness. Higher carbonated mouth feel. The aftertaste leaves you with a nice citrus rind bitter note. This would make a nice summer beer to drink when you wanted more than one: refreshing and won't overload the taste buds. I wasn't too sure about this one on the first couple of sips as it seemed a little too mild, but it grew on me and I enjoyed it.
