Flavor

Light bready malt initiates a palate that transitions quickly to hoppy flavors of lemon, orange, and pine. Finishes with a bite of spicy hops. A mild caramel sweetness balances the flavor.

Mouthfeel

The ale sits nicely on the tongue with a medium-light body and ample carbonation.

Overall

Censored has a well balanced, clean palate along with being refreshing and easy to drink. Its bright hoppy taste does lean more towards a red ale than amber, but it’s still pretty enjoyable.
