Pours cloudy orange with a light 1/16 inch head. Below average lacing. Under carbonated with a super sweet hoppy flowery citrus smell. Very fruity that is unusual for a pale ale. The light flowery hops dominate the malts . It finishes with a light sweetness with just a hint bitterness. This is does not taste like a pale ale.

Bottle courtesy of kyzr: Pours a transparent deep golden bronze with a spotty white head. Aroma of pale malts with a touch of sauerkraut. Body starts lightly sweet but drying and thinning quickly with some mild tartness. This definitely seems infected and off.

22 oz bottle, via kyzr. Pours a clear dark copper under a one finger fizzy off-white head that faded to a spotty covering. Nose is very light, some floral hops with a touch of butterscotch and a little sweet malt. Flavor is lightly hoppy with minimal to no bitterness and a little diacetyl on the finish. Mouthfeel is thinnish with a watery texture and moderate fizzy carbonation. This was pretty uninspiring and a little boring. Pretty light on the hops, even for a Pale Ale.

Bottled. Pours a medium/dark copper color. Slightly sweet malty aroma. Kind of metallic smelling. Flavor is somewhat grainy with a bit of hoppiness. Some lager qualities.
