Upped the Lemon Juice to 1/2 oz noting the author's comment on sweetness. This had an interesting hop profile come through (which may be red wine dependent - I had a reasonably beefy Australian Shiraz on hand) which was quite pleasant, nearly like a classy radler. Balanced, interesting, and sweetly refreshing.
