Sold in Sweden as Summer Ale. Pours gold orange, with 2 cm cream-coloured head. Smells of celery, red licorice, and lots of husky grains. Mouthfeel is slick with medium carbonation. Taste is nice and hoppy, with grapefruit notes and a bitter finish. Nice and plain ale for quaffing.

I mean, there are a LOT of beers out there, and if you are a middle-of-the-road standard pale ale, what really needs to be said? This would be the beer of choice if you were at the Michigan Brewing Co and in the mood for a pale ale.
