Appearance:
Color is red with brown highlights. It's clear, almost crystal clear.
Aroma:
Bread, slight citrus - like lime zest
Flavor:
Lime zest is up front, followed quickly by caramel and bread notes. The body is malt forward, not heavy and not light. It's probably perfect for the style. Unfortunately that's the only thing that nails the style. I can't put my finger on the exact problem but I think it needs to be more bitter/balanced (even though this has 64 IBUs) and it should have more hop aroma. I knew I was dry hopping it on the light side with 2oz/5gal, and with old hops, but I had hops to use up.
