This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a medium sized head of foamy finely sized white colored bubbles that were and left behind a slightly hazy typically carbonated yellow colored body and a thick foamy lacing. The aroma was malty musty and banana. The semi-flat mouth feel was untingly fromstart to finish. The watery flavor contained notes of malt. Not one that I would buy again. Pass on this one, for the weak at heart only.

Sampled at a festival a while back, pretty basic golden ale- pours a bright golden colour with a small white head. Aroma is of grain, biscuits and pears. Taste is malty on the palate, and a little sweet as well.

12oz bottle poured into a dimpled mug. Retired? Resurrected! AGA pours cloudy light yellow with a fruity and nose accented by a touch of hops. The beer as a whole is sour and acidic. It has a really bad... ah geez. It just sucks. I hope this nasty piece of work crawls back to the grave where its zombie body crept from.

Sampled @ Hallandale beer fest (bottle). Retired? It must be the Lazarus of beer because I had this just the other day, saw it with my own two eyes. Anyway, it pours a pissy yellow color and has pale lager aromas, sour, lactic flavors that don’t belong. Some cream soda yikkiness and dirty finish. Shoulda kept it in the grave. P.S. I swear I didn’t even glance at kp’s ratings when i entered mine--that is just a cool coincidence.

Light gold with a good head and lacing. There’s a slight fruitiness and it’s light and crisp.

A notch darker than the kolsch. Sweet, fruity aroma. Light sweetness, fruity, bready. Put me in the mind of a bear claw or other yeasty pastry. Light west coast hopping over gives it a bit of lemon-orange zip. Great PA style body. Quality malt. A nice brew.
