On-tap at PP C’Bad. Pours clear light yellow with a nice white head, spider web lace. Smells light and malty crisp. Man is this a tasty fizzy yellow beer. Nice tasty malts and then slightly nutty hops. Not nutty in a bad way though. Medium body, good carbonation.

On tap @ Live Wire. After a pliny, Old Viscosity and a midas touch, this was a nice change of pace. I have to agree with the others, this did have quite a strong corn/cereal flavor about it, but not in a bad way. Pretty much the kind of beer you expect from BP, well done and tasty. A good summer backyard beer.

I think this on is also called Blue Fin. Had this at the Mammoth Festival. Pours a pale gold. Smells bready and sweet. Finishes crisp and refreshing. A nice lager.has a really nice clean finish with a quenching hop bite. Nice and bready.

Tap, O’Brien’s. Pours a medium/light golden color. Aroma is grassy and slightly acidic. Creamy grainy flavor. Good malt. Nice easy drinker for a lighter change of pace.

Sample at the Linda Vista location. This beer pours a clear yellow-gold color with a medium thin and fizzy white head that dissipates quickly. Stringy lacing. Sweet malt and fruit in the nose. Light-bodied with flavors of grain and malt, along with notes of fruit and hops. The finish is malty and clean with a sweet aftertaste. Decent overall.
