A 4.8% 25 IBU session pale ale.   This is clearly a session beer, but it has some good flavor.   It feels a bit watery, but the flavors are clean.  The 25IBUs don’t overwhelm the clean light malt, but bring fruity flavors of pineapple and other citrus fruits.  The English would say this verges on being an IPA, but over here it’s the epitome of restraint.   The Li in No-Li, by the way, rhymes with lie; the brewery’s original name was Northern Lights, but a Virginia company took issue and forced a renaming.
