hazy amber, wispy off white head, sweet crystal and caramel aroma with lots of citrus character for the standard sugar grapefruit character, rich caramel malt flavor, nice sweetness to complement a lot of citrus hop flavor, lasting bitter finish,

See my notes about the brewpub under my rating for La Jolla Brewery California Blonde. 6 oz. sampler at the brewpub. Like the other LJB beers, this is an attractive one in the glass - golden bronze color, clear with a a creamy white head that lasts well and leaves nice lace. Aroma is faint and dominated by floral hops with notes of grass and light citrus. Flavor is also dominated by the floral hops - this one is unbalanced in my opinion, with little maltiness - it tastes much like it smells. Light body, moderate carbonation. Disappointing overall for one of my favorite styles.
