It's not a sweet pale ale, more of a hoppy one. The mouth feel is medium body with a decent carbonation yielding a nice creaminess.

175 He'Brew Genesis Dry Hopped Session Ale United States American Pale Ale 3.0

Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6

pours dark, hazy copper/brown with a small frothy off-white head. Decent retention and lacing. The aroma is surprisingly malt-forward; roasted toffee is especially evident.
