This American Pale Ale has a nice caramel malt backbone to it before you get the rush of sour, citrusy hops.  The transition is very smooth and I believe this beer is well balanced.  As a result, I think this is a delicious little brew that I could probably session the hell out of.  Sure, I'd probably like it better if it was a little less hoppy, if it had a little fuller mouth-feel and maybe if it was a little richer, but hey that's just me being picky.  This beer is solid and I actually think I'm going to seek this out now and again.
