Saranac Pale Pale Ale poured a crystal clear, dark yellow color with a pen width white head.  The aroma had a little malt, some hops, and a few citrus notes.  The body was pretty thin with only a little malt and more citrus holding it up.  The finish is very short, with a little yeast in it.  This beer is really light without much to either the body or the finish.  I know this is meant to be a summer sessional for the really hot weather but I just find it bland.  There is nothing that jumps out at me.  There are better beers to try from the folks at F.X. Matt.  

The ultimate resource for beer drinkers!
