Beer was clear, compact yeast layer at bottom, light yellow-gold, weak head. This was a partially filled bottle, last bit in the bucket. Pronounced citrus aroma upon pouring. Simcoe hop flavors dominate, pine-herbal, some citrus. Only slight malty notes. Hop bitterness lingers. Very light mouth feel, a very light-bodied beer. A good light beer showcasing Simcoe hop characteristics.
