Description:

Good beer. Straw yellow color, clean malt flavor, light, citrusy nose, great citurs flavor. Easy drinking. No harsh bitterness. I don't know where the hops are hiding in this beer. Very, very soft beer. Could be the large amount of wheat. A little thin in the body. More like a pale ale rather than an IPA but good nonetheless. I'd like to punch this up a bit. Add another half once of Centennial at the 60 minute mark. Needs more body too so a half pound of caripils should do it.
