      Golden, very hazy with yeast. Thick, dense head.
      Aroma (3)
      Mild fruity, floral hops.
      Mouthfeel (8)
      Medium body, fairly fizzy. Big fruity hop flavor up front, with a fairly big bitterness to go along with it. Grainy, biscuity malt is way in the background. Lingering bitter, fruity finish.
