Meatmallet (120), Salem, Illinois, USA Oct 7, 2009 Appearance: A pale and cloudy light straw color with a thick white head.
Smell: Very light. Lemon drops coriander and orange peel on the nose mostly.
Taste: Now I know why this was on clearance. A very weak lemon flavor with a little bit of wheat and coriander. Not very good.
Mouthfeel/drinkability: Very light body with medium carbonation. Not very impressed with this one.
lithy (1600), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Oct 1, 2009 Hazy light yellow with a marshmellow white soft head. Aroma is interesting lemongrass, fruity.

Flav.: Spicy coriander, lemons, some light green herbals, some light malt, a bit of orange; dry with no bitterness and a nice lemon and malt finish.
Quite tasty. Would be interesting to try this fresh, because I quite enjoyed this old bottle. Unfortunately, I now have that stupid Falco song stuck in my head. thedm (3833), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA Aug 25, 2009 This corked and caged bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a large sized head of foamy finely sized white colored bubbles that were mostly lasting and left behind a hazy yellow-white colored body. The weak aroma was floral and spicy. The mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish. The flavor contained notes of mild hops coriander and floral. A decent one but not one that I would consider buying again. wnp22 (682), Toronto (Roncesvalles Village), Ontario, Canada Aug 11, 2009 Tasted in Colorado...Keystone....11Kft. Appearance was classic white, big head, some citrus scent and cloudy complexion. But flavour, texture and finish was weak - watery, seemed like an impostor to the style. Too bad. mirjukka (695), LOHJA, Finland Jul 31, 2009 750ml bottle EXP 28.06.10 hazy yellow small white head lacing. Doominatinglemon peel from first sip pfenols and coriander presents also. Tasty examle of this style. After sauna beer today. Snojerk321 (1914), San Diego, California, USA Jul 17, 2009 750ml bottle from bevmo. Pours a light hazy straw yellow with a small white head. Nose of coriander, lemon peel and yeast. Flavor had a light lemon zest with a kind of wheaty finish, ok. Narnad (681), Wonder Lake, Illinois, USA Jul 15, 2009 Pours a very hazy bright yellow color with a modest, foamy, white head. Aroma is very strong of lemon grass, light pils aroma, some acidic and light sour notes, some odd spice and a citrus and hay note at the ending. Flavor has a very dirty hay note at the start, moves into a light lemon grass middle and finishes with a wheat note. Brew is smooth and feels a bit full. Overall the flavor just doesn’t do it for me with too much of a dirty/soiled hay flavor just seems to ruin it for me.
