Richelieu
A pale ale leaning on the East Coast reading of the style, aromatic in the glass and gentle on bitterness. Ripe citrus and stone fruit come through first, tangerine with a little apricot behind it, over a soft and lightly sweet malt base that keeps the texture rounded rather than crisp. The hop character reads juicy instead of resinous, and the close is short and smooth, the fruit fading before bitterness takes over.
