What Our Editors Thought
“Soft stone fruit finds structure from a floral note in the nose. The sip is light—very light—with gentle pale malt notes through the middle. Just a bit too sweet for a beer this light, but fruit notes keep it fun.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Moderate lime and lemongrass aroma with light apricot ester. Very subdued bitterness, but lots of hop flavor—lime zest, grapefruit. The lemony hops skirt close to oily, and the flavor pushes a hair closer, but it’s softened by bready malt.”
What the Brewers Say
“Intense citrus juiciness balanced with a soft malt core that ‘puts you on Cloud Nine!’”
