Grass Roots Brewing - Artic Sasion

So I came across this nifty Ale as part of the beer of the month club.

It's nose is light and lemon grassy, it's a cloudy blonde in color with a loose head that is explained by the Bret that it;s brewed with. There is not much malt flavor, but the hops do stand up to funkiness. It's actually not too funky, it has a pleasant mouth forward flavor and mouth feel, but it's actually pretty clean straight forward ale.

It's also apparently fermented in oak, but that is mercifully subtle as well.
