Fresh, grassy and slightly cakey on the nose, citric and sweetly tart on the palate; this American golden ale has a depth of flavor often lacking in promising session brews. The initial sip is refreshing, minty and a little dry, sweetness is more apparent as the beer warms through the drink. This is the definition of a solid 'year round,' flavorful and robust enough for ample cold weather imbibing and light enough for carefree hot weather quenching.
