Batch 203 Cream Ale tasting notes

Cold from tap

Pours medium orange cloudy very tall billowy tan head

Aroma bright citrus/tap water 

Mouthfeel moderate body, some malt cloy 

Flavor bitter-sweet fruit with heavy pepper

Finishes on the hop bitter side, fairly clean quench 

Overall kinda hoppy easy drinker.
