Day 58, 2.27.11., Full Sail - LTD Series #04

So, according to the information on the bottle, Full Sail is now producing a line of special limited edition beers dubbed 'LTD'.  I picked up a bottle at Trader Joe's.  This one is Recipe #04 and is a single malt single hop beer featuring pale malt and Willamette hops.
It's a nice thought, but I feel like this one just a little boring.   I guess if you just wanna sit and split a six-pack, this one is a fine choice.  It's a golden yellow beer with a medium amount of white head that left a bit of lacing.
On the nose there is a little caramel and some subtle citrus notes, lemon and orange.
The palate offers some very nice dry, sharp hop bitterness.  There's a touch of some honey, but not really enough of this malty backing to really make it a great beer.  It's fine. 

45 IBU, 7% ABV, 6 out of 10
