Victory Brewing Headwaters Pale Ale

One of the small-batch and relatively limited brews from Victory, this is the Headwaters Pale Ale.  I hear about this one nearly every year, but for some reason I've never sit down to try it.

The Headwaters pours out a clear golden color, with light and fluffy foam on top. Aromas are slightly hoppy, but heavy on the sweet side of things.

Just a touch of hops balance nicely with a substantial amount of malts.  The hops are slightly bitter, but more citrus and piney than a sticky/bitter style.  The malts are sweet, but not candy/sugary sweet.  Very nice balance and a very clean smooth finish.
