Alright, here is a picture of the beer. The second time around I feel like the hop taste stayed around a little better and the aroma faded, but probably typical for any beer. I wasn't eating this time, so much easier to tell the flavor profile. See the attachment for a picture.

All - I tried the first bottle of this batch the other day. It turned out pretty decent...color was darker than I was shooting for (probably using light LME instead of extra light), it was hazy but not quite as hazy I was shooting for. The first aroma was all Mosaic/Citra in the face, which was...
