Furthermore Proper

Looking at notes from April, 2007, for this pale ale from Furthermore, of Spring Green, Wisconsin:

Clear, coppery, carbonated, with prodigious head. 

Clean, floral/herbal aroma, minor hops, aromatic & bittering...largely empty, though... 

Smooth on the tongue, lightly malty, toasty caramel malts, slight cereal taste, lacking hops..."moistness" is the major component here, wet and vacant... 

"Light-bodied", yes...but "classic",...not so sure. They could have given this some character, but instead chose to go with weak and wanting. Pity. 

Not bad, but could have been a lot better.

(Update: still not a big fan, though it combines drinkability and inoffensiveness with efficient ease.)
